 pg 6- making nouns plural- first ask-how do you make things plural? (have some
objects for examples)
 also emphasize how it changes the sound of some words- eg. House – houses,
couch – couches, box – boxes, dress – dresses (any word ending in an e you
have short ‘e’ sound before the ‘s’ )
 NB. Also point out that a lot of the verbs that you add –es, the nouns that take
-es for their plural end in the same endings, eg. Couch, box, quiz, watch, dress,
brush, etc, but some this doesn’t apply to like collective nouns like trash.

 For Review- present simple card game (with Phases 10 cards):

Instructions:

On the board, write 12 present simple verbs and number them from one to 12, and put a
different pronoun by each verb. For example:

 1 – write, she
 2 – buy, I
 3 – study, you

Deal each students 8-10 cards.

Each learner now has cards with numbers, and each number corresponds with a verb
on the board. They must think of a question containing this verb and with the correct
pronoun to ask the other learners in the group. The first person to think of an answer
and correctly answer the question gets their card. The students must raise their hand if
they have thought of an answer, and the person who raises their hand first gets the first
chance. The goal is to collect as many cards as possible.

The person whos turn it is places the card in the center and asks their question to all the
learners in the group.

The question must be an open question: Where do you study?

Closed questions, which can be answered with yes or no, are not allowed in this game:
Do you study here?

Everyone must try and answer, but the first to answer with a correct sentence gets the
card.

The skip and wild cards are wild- if they have a wild card they can choose any verb and
pronoun they want to make a question with.
