five irregular nouns, one word on each card. Focus on handwriting as well
as spelling in this activity.
6. Pupils play a game with their own cards (they place the cards face down,
then turn over two cards to try to find a pair). Collect the cards at the end
of the game so pupils can use them again.
7. (If time) Play a plurals quiz where you say a word and pupils have to think
about the plural form. You could stick a paper on the wall that says ‘S’ and
another that says ‘Not S’ on the opposite side of the classroom. Pupils
listen and then run to the correct paper (e.g. ‘S’ for duck; ‘Not S’ for
sheep.)
