| Fun, students check with a magnetic wand |
Plurals center with magnetic wand
Teacher directions: On the outside of an envelope write the rule. If the word ends in a vowel y (VY) students add s to the word. If the word ends in a consonant y (CY) students change the y to i and add es.
Next, write words on strips of paper that students are going to change into a plural, and write the answers on the back for students to be able to check. PUT A PAPER CLIP ONTO EACH STRIP SO STUDENTS CAN TURN IT OVER WITH THE MAGNETIC WAND TO CHECK / THE FUN FACTOR.
Student directions: A group of students write the word on a white board or paper and underline the last two letters and put the code on top (CY OR VY). NEXT, they add s or change the y to i and add es. Next, one student turns it over by touching the paper clip to the magnetic wand. Students make corrections.
Teacher accountability: Teacher check papers or white boards.
