Today, third graders learned about the suffixes -s and -es in UFLI and how they make nouns plural and change verbs. After our lesson, students painted their UFLI words to show their understanding.
First, we repeated each word, tapped out the sounds, and then spelled the word using paint.
Here are three questions to ask third graders:
1. If a word ends in ch, sh, s, x, or z, which ending do we usually add to make it plural?
2. Say the word “fox.” How would you spell it if there is more than one?
Today TL-M teachers engaged in professional development led by our very own Miss Alicia Weiand. Thanks for deepening our understanding of accommodations and modifications!
