Plural+Nouns

Plural Nouns by Lindsay Core This lesson was created around the plural nouns section in Crossroads 8B.
 * 1) Introduce students to plural nouns and the rules (add "s", add "es", change "f" to "ves", change "y" to "ies", exeptions)
 * 2) Distribute worksheet (see below). Go around and check student work. As you're talking to each student, assign him a noun that he will place in a category when the worksheet is taken up (that way even the weaker students can participate).
 * 3) Take up the worksheet and write the answers on the board in the correct categories.
 * 4) Game: Battle
 * 5) Each student gets 8 different cards
 * 6) With her deck of cards face-down in her hand she "battles" with a partner. Each partner turns up one card.
 * 7) She says the pictures in singular and plural (child/children, sarf/scarves). If she gets both right she wins the two cards. If she makes a mistake her partner wins the cards. Next it's the partner's turn.
 * 8) Keep "battling" until they get through their deck.
 * 9) Switch partners and "battle" through the deck again.
 * 10) Keep going for 10 minutes. The student with the most cards in their deck wins a prize.
