Everywhere they are seen.
But we must first know ___________,

Don't forget the rules that plurals have,
If you don't know them it's pretty _____.
This song will teach you all the rules,

the ending's where the answer's found.
Plural nouns, plural nouns,
you use them so much look around.

Cat turns into ______,
_____ turns into toes.
Boy turns into ______,
_______ turns into hippos.

Now for most nouns,
you just add and -s
But if it is a consonant and y,
You've got to add – ies

Just take that Y and let it go,
You don't need that _____ anymore.
Then add an I E S,
and you can go.

Chorus:

For S, SS, CH, SH, X or Z,
You have to add -es
for that to be plural pretty please.

Now what if that noun has an F or FE?
You take it off and add V
Then ES you see!

English exercises (Simple Present tense and the time)

Hi everyone! Here's your homework. If you can't print it please write the answers in your copybooks so we can correct it together in class.
There is a SIMPLE PRESENT explanation and some exercises. Please do all!
                                                  Have a nice weekend!

SIMPLE PRESENT USE
  • to give your opinion - I like ice cream. I don't like spicy food.
  • to talk about schedules - The library opens at eight. It doesn't open at 7.
  • to talk about daily habits (routine actions)- Sara eats a cheese for breakfast every day. She doesn't eat cereal.
  • to give facts - The earth circles the sun. The moon doesn't circle the sun.

The spelling of the third person singular form of the simple present:

All the verbs take an "s" in the simple present when conjugated in the third person singular (he, she, it) form:

Examples:

  • I visit my parents every summer holiday. But my wife visits her parents every weekend.
  • My brother meets his girlfriend everyday.
So the rule is:
He / she / it + Verb + S
There are however some special cases. Here are the spelling rules:
Silent eVowel + yConsonant + yVerbs ending in oVerbs ending in szshtchch
close = closes
note = notes
play = plays
say = says
study = studies
marry = marries
go = goes
do = does
miss = misses
buzz = buzzes
hatch = hatches
finish = finishes
teach = teaches
The affirmative form of the simple present:
I, you, we, theyplay.
He, she, itplays.

Remember the verbs in the third person singular (he,she and it) always take an "s". For example, "he plays, she sings,it works..."

The interrogative form of the simple present:

DoI, you, we, theyplay?
Doeshe, she, it
Examples:
  • Do you speak good German?
  • Does Nancy work in a restaurant downtown?

The negative form of the simple present:

I, you, we,theydo notplay.
don't
He, she, itdoes not
doesn't
Examples:
  • No, I don't speak German.
  • No, she doesn't work in a restaurant downtown
Write the verbs in brackets in the correct way.
  1. My father (like)  lemonade very much.
  2. The girls always  (listen) to pop music.
  3. Janet never    (wear)jeans.
  4. Mr Smith  (teach) Spanish and French.
  5. You (do)  your homework after school.
