NOUNS Test Review

Click on this link below to see a study guide of what you need to review for your Noun's test on Thursday. http://www.box.net/shared/6ls8djh3gj (ignore the date on the sheet)

Use these exercises to practice for the  'Nouns' Test. Make sure  you watch the second video. Hint Hint.. Do you know the 7 rules for making nouns plural?
You need to know each rule 'Perfectly'
e.g. NOT y changes  to  ies... BUT consonant Y change to IES 

You do not need to do all of them, but you should tackle at least one from each category. (especially possessive nouns)  Bring any questions that you might have to class if  you get answers incorrect and don't know why. Ignore any dead links.
