Struggling with Teaching Suffixes and Plurals? We Can Help!

We can help! Along with our printable resources, worksheets, task cards, and games covering the concept of suffixes, we’ve also created a new digital interactive activity for your students to practise reading and spelling plural nouns with the suffixes -s, -es, -ies and -ves.

Can You Colour by Code with Plurals? Absolutely!

This resource can be used in multiple ways. It can be completed in a whole-group learning session by having your students come up to the board to interact with the elements on each slide, or your students can complete it independently.

Each slide features a group of stars that have lost their colour! Students must use the paint can tool in Google Slides to recolour each star according to a colour key On alternating slides, students must

1. Read a base word.
2. Determine if the word shown would need -s, -es, -ies or -ves in order to make it plural.
3. Use the paint can tool to colour the star according to the colour key.

Every other slide also has students pluralising a group of five nouns and typing them into the table.
