We will be learning about plurals for the next two weeks.
Most words can just add an "s" to make plural.
Words that end in s, sh, ch, x or z, we add an "es" to make plural.
Words that end with a consonant and y, you change to "ies."
Words that end with an f or fe, become "ves" to make them plural.
Some words stay the same when they become plural.
Here are some example words:
friend - friends
bench - benches
wish - wishes
boy - boys
baby - babies
puppy - puppies
leaf - leaves
wife - wives
fish - fish
deer - deer
mouse - mice
child – children
