Instructional Ideas
- If anyone in the class has a first or last name ending in -sh or -ch, ask if you can use their name as a class example
- Use as a short quiz to assess prior knowledge before beginning a unit on parts of speech
- Discuss the word ache and why its etymology technically puts it in this category of nouns; for additional discussion, see what learners think of the word fishes vs. fish as a plural noun
Classroom Considerations
- Instructions are dense and may be difficult for non-native speakers to understand right away
- The word path may throw learners for a loop, as there is no guidance on handling words with a -th ending
Pros
- Easy to print, copy, distribute, and assess
- Comes with a straightforward answer key
Cons
