the noun.

Write these on the board as they are shared. Discuss which letters are

needed in each case to make them plural (es).

Eg brush, church, cross, box, dress, circus, glass, fox, princess, fizz, sandwich,
crash, address, class, bush, bunch, hostess, authoress, six, match

3. Let the children complete the worksheet to consolidate their learning. The
