Read the instructions for each section carefully and do your best!

When a word ends in a consonant and 'y', we change the 'y' to 'i' and add 'es' to make it plural. Let's practice!

1. One baby, many  

2. One candy, many  

3. One puppy, many  

4. One party, many  

Draw a line to match the word with its correct plural form.

Change the 'y' to 'i' and add 'ed' to show something happened in the past.
