Nouns!!!

We have been working on nouns for the past several weeks. We have learned about common nouns, proper nouns, and possessive nouns. Recently, we have been learning about singular and plural nouns. To help better understand the different between the two, we played a little game!!

They class was divided into groups of 4. Each group was given a set of "Memory Match: Noun Style" cards. The game is very similar to the traditional Memory game. However, in this game students had to match the singular noun to the plural noun. We they made the match, they had to tell their teammates which noun was singular and which was plural AND why (the plural noun has an "s" at the end). They really had a great time reinforcing this new skill! :)

This was a "cookie" noun sort we also played.  One student suggested we make real sugar cookies as a class and write nouns on them with icing. (I think she might be a teacher someday!)
