Singular and Plural
One of something is called singular.
More than one of something is called plural.
e.g. one cat ----> two cats
if the word ends in s, ss, sh, ch, tch or x we add 'es'.
e.g. one bush ----> two bushes
Task 1:

Task 2:
Some plurals do not follow these rules. Can you work out what the rule is when a word ends in y?
e.g. city ---> cities penny ---> pennies
Can you think of any other words that end in y? Write down their plurals.
