Plurals
This week, children will not be given a list of words to learn. Instead, I would like them to investigate how we turn singular nouns into plurals. They will have learnt this lower down school but we’re still making errors with this rule in our everyday writing. Children should think of the different ways in which words can be pluralised and show their findings. This should be evidenced in their homework book. To get them started, think about these words: bus, cup, baby.
For an extra challenge, see if you can think of any common mistakes.
