📚 Topic Summary
Hello, young learners! Today, we're going to explore how to talk about more than one thing. Sometimes, we have just one apple 🍎, but what if we have many? We say "apples"! When a word means just one thing, we call it a singular noun. When it means more than one, we call it a plural noun.
For most words, making them plural is super easy! We just need to add the letter 's' to the end of the word. So, "cat" becomes "cats," "book" becomes "books," and "flower" becomes "flowers." Get ready to practice turning singular words into plural words!
