I still am creative, even at the end

With Two Days to Go, I wrote this song--in hopes that my kids would actually learn how to make these words into plurals!

Really Hard Plurals

Sung to Oh Do You Know the Muffin Man

by Kaylynn Spencer

Oh do you know how to make plurals, how to make plurals, how to make plurals. Oh do you know how to make plurals with the really really hard words.

You change the f to ves, ves, ves. You change the f to ves except when it’s double f.

You add es to ch, sh, x, ch, sh, x, ch, sh x.

You add es to ch, sh, x, that will make it plural.

Oh, when do I change the y to i, the y to i, the y to i?

Oh, when do I change the y to i, it is hard to know.

Words that end in consonant y, consonant y, consonant y,

Words that end in consonant y, it changes to an ies.

Words that end in a vowel and a y, vowel and a y, vowel and a y,

Words that end in a vowel and a y, you just add an s.

Oh do you know how to make plurals, how to make plurals, how to make plurals. Oh do you know how to make plurals with the really really hard words.
