Posting Plurals great idea

In preparation for the writing test, plurals is the topic of the day. Here's a simple way to practice plurals with your kids that costs only cents. What you will need:

1. Sentence strips
2. Markers
3. List of nouns that follow the rules.

What you do:

1. Write the noun on the sentence strip.
2. Fold the right hand corner to cover up whatever gets taken away on the reform of the word.
3. Write the new ending that makes the word plural.

See pictures below! 

Before the flaps are folded down.

After the flaps are folded down (minus the first one).

You could even have your children make their own. You really can use any type of paper and any noun! Simple and cheap!
