Before you play

Game teaching guide

What children will practise

Sort nouns that add -s from those that add -es, regular from irregular plurals (child, foot), countable from uncountable nouns (milk, sugar), and words taking a vs an.

What's in the worksheet

4 questions, sorting into 2 groups - book, dog add s; box, bus add es - cat, pen add s as usual; child, foot change form - apple, chair are countable; milk, sugar are uncountable - book, cat take a; apple, orange take an

How to use it in class

Use after teaching the -s/-es rules, about 5 minutes. Play solo first, then replay the most-missed question as a class. - For Q1, children say boxes and buses aloud and hear the extra syllable - For Q2, give the plurals children and feet, since the game does not show them - Play it linked to your class so scores go into the gradebook

Common sticking points

- bus (Q1): dragged to add s, as if it became buss - foot (Q2): dragged to add s as usual, because children do not know feet yet - sugar (Q3): dragged to countable since you can count bags or spoons. Explain you cannot count it grain by grain
