I don't know about you, but I'm ready for the hot and humid days to move along and make way for some crisp fall ones. Sooo much more energizing, don't you think?
I think it's easy for me as a teacher to forget that what's obvious to an adult might be overlooked by some of our littles. You know the kinds of things that I mean ...
Bathroom stalls have doors so they can be closed.
Saving your ice cream in your lunchbox for an afternoon snack doesn't work out well.
... and adding an s to the end of a noun is usually the way to form a plural.
Every year, it would amaze me to see a new reader who hadn't picked up on that and would read the word "cat" and in the next sentence would start from scratch to sound out the word "cats".
Here's a card set to help you set your mind toward fall AND to remind your little learners that many plural nouns are formed by adding an s. There are 8 autumn nouns, given in both singular and plural forms (16 cards). Students can sort them on the included mat or use them for matching games like memory.
