Practice Irregular Plural Nouns
Practice changing tricky words like "child" to "children" and "mouse" to "mice" with quick online quizzes. Kids get instant feedback to build strong reading and writing skills.
What to know
Most plural words end with an "s" or "es", but irregular plural nouns like to break the rules! Instead of adding "s" at the end, these special words completely change their spelling when there is more than one. For example, one child becomes two children, and one mouse becomes a group of mice. Practicing these special words helps make your writing super strong!
