Use the PowerPoint in conjunction with the Matching Cards to elicit the rules for forming plurals in French.
Expressions on cards:
Une main
Deux mains
Un nez
Deux nez
Un cheveu
Des cheveux
Un animal
Six animaux
Un gâteau
Des gâteaux
Un genou
Trois genoux
Un œil
Les yeux
I use the first slide to elicit some imaginative plural translations, but you may wish to skip this.
Slide 2 asks:
Match the singular and plural cards.
ALL: How do you make most nouns plural?
MOST: How do you make nouns that end in the following letters plural?
-z
-eu
-al
-eau
-ou
SOME: Which noun is completely irregular and doesn’t follow ANY rules?
Extension: Make up a song/ poem/performance to help people remember these rules.
Slides 3 and 4 check the answers and slide 5 summarises the rules (this can be printed out and stuck into books).
