Use of the board
The board work below covers the different regular plural forms along with a few examples of some common nouns with irregular plural forms. It's colour-coded to highlight possible opportunities to elicit responses from the class and confirm student understanding. If you need to bring this board into the classroom for reference, the TEFL Handbook app gives you offline access everything on this site, plus a lot more.
Classroom quantities
Students use the target language for the lesson to answer questions about specific items within the classroom.
Ask the students about the number of specific objects in the classroom. How many chairs, students, teachers etc. Encourage them to answer in sentences and guide them on the correct usage of there's/are:
Singular & Plural Nouns: Lesson For Kids - Video & Lesson ...
Teacher: How many chairs are there in this classroom?
Student: There are 16 chairs.
The answer to your questions should be a mix of singular and plural.
Plural writing practice
For this writing activity, the students will use the target grammar to create sentences about the classroom.
Before they begin, encourage your students to ask you about any vocabulary in the classroom that they don't know. Practise the correct pronunciation of these words as a group.
When ready, have your pupils write six sentences about the classroom using there's/are (Three of each).
What am I thinking?
The students have to guess which item the teacher is thinking about.
You will describe objects in the room (quantity, location, physical description) while the students try to guess what they are. Use the dialogue below as a guide:
Teacher: There are three of these in the classroom.
Student: Windows!
Teacher: No. They are next to the door.
Student: Books.
Teacher: No. They are small and brown.
Student: Boxes.
Repeat for as many times as you feel necessary, but you might want to save some items for the next activity.
My turn
Now the students will take turns giving clues about items that they are thinking about.
We take the basic idea of the previous exercise, but with the students taking turns to play the role of the teacher. While the students are interacting, you should monitor and correct mistakes. You can even turn this into a fun team or individual game.
Snowball darts: Plurals
Students have to convert nouns to their plural form to earn a throw of the snowball and a chance to win points for their team.
Draw a circular target on the whiteboard with several concentric layers of different score values. Crush a blank piece of paper into a snowball shape. For each turn, give the student a noun that they must spell in its plural form. If they get it correct, they can throw a snowball at the board. Keep the scores on the board. You can play as an individual or team game. Use the list below to get you started.
1. fish
2. lunch
3. bus
4. dress
5. box
6. beach
7. person
8. glass
9. woman
10. fox
11. woman
12. man
13. person

I asked students if they knew what plural nouns were. Several raised their hands. I called on one and he told me plural means more than one. Next, I asked students to tell me how we write plural nouns. They said we add -s or -es. I asked about nouns like tooth. I heard them whisper tooths under their breath, realize it wasn't correct, and quickly pipe out, 'Teeth!' 'Yes!' I exclaimed. I explained some nouns are irregular. Instead of adding an -s or -es in the regular way to make it plural, it changes its spelling OR the singular and plural forms are the same.

I wrote two columns on the board. I labeled one singular and the other plural. I wrote tooth in the singular column and teeth in the plural column. I wrote child in the singular column and asked them to supply the plural. They promptly called out children. I did the same foot/feet and mouse/mice. I chose these nouns as examples because I knew students would be familiar with their plural forms. I reinforced the vocabulary by asking them what type of nouns they were. They correctly identified them as irregular.

I passed out the worksheet where students would write the plural form of irregular nouns. I told them they were going to learn the plural form of irregular nouns by looking them up in the dictionary. (To review uses of the dictionary, I randomly called on students to read the bulleted list on the dictionary skills poster. One of the listed uses is other word forms.) I modeled how to do this by placing a children’s dictionary on the document camera. I looked up the word child and pointed out where they would find the plural form of the word (children). I modeled writing it on the worksheet. Students followed suit on their own sheet. Students are familiar with how to use the dictionary, so I released them to complete the assignment with a partner.
