Week 3 March 8-12 __**Focus: Plurals of words that end in the letter O**__. General Rule for Adding S or ES: Usually, you add ES if it will not make three vowels in a row. Ex: Tomat__o__=Tomat__oe__s. Tomato ends in only one vowel, so you can safely add ES If by adding ES, the word now has three vowels, only add S. Example Rad__io__=Radios. Radio ends in 2 vowels, so you can't safely add ES There are a few words that DON'T follow this rule. Can you spot them???

1. studios 2. radios 3. rodeos 4. stereos 5. patios 6. ratios 7. igloos 8. banjos 9. pianos 10. kangaroos 11. zeros 12. lassos 13. halos 14. silos 15. echoes 16. heroes 17. potatoes 18. tomatoes
