Concept Development
  • Today we will be working with words that end
    with a y to write them in their plural form.
  • Ex. lady boy daisy
  • There will be two types of plural forms. Some
    will be regular plurals and others will be
    irregular plurals.

5
  • A regular plural is a word that you add an s
    to at the end.
  • When words end in a
  • we add s at the end to make it plural.
  • Ex. t s toys

vowel and a y,
oy

Non - examples
  • book s books
  • car s cars

Checking for Understanding
  • TPS Why did I just add an s to tray to make it
    plural?
  • tray s trays

8
  • Irregular plurals are words that are not
    typical, usual, or common because they change
    spelling when talking about more than one.
  • When words end in a
  • we drop the y and add ies to make the word
    plural.
  • Ex. strawber ies strawberries

consonant and a y
ry
