A girl opens the fridge and a boy opens the cupboard. On the table there is lettuce, tomatoes, onions and carrots. The song I'm hungry is in the middle. — The song "I'm hungry". There's some flour in the cupboard. There are some tomatoes on the table.

Get Smart Plus 3, p. 55.

more than one thing (carrots, eggs, tomatoes, onions)	There are some + words	There are some carrots on the table. There are some tomatoes.

6.5Phonics: three sounds of s

When we add -s or -es to make "more than one", the end can sound three ways.

Shells: s /s/ caps, books; s /z/ eggs, peas; es /z/ tomatoes, cherries; es /ɪz/ glasses, buses, foxes, dishes

Get Smart Plus 3, Phonics p. 110.

Sound	Sounds like	Example words
/s/	a snake, "sss"	caps, books
/z/	a bee, "zzz"	eggs, peas, tomatoes, cherries
/ɪz/	an extra beat, "iz"	glasses, foxes, buses, dishes

Clap the beats. Dish has one beat, but dish-es has two. Words ending in s, x, sh, ch add -es and get the extra "iz" beat.

A boy at a table full of food: noodles, pancakes, a burger, tomatoes, cherries, fish and chips. The chant Look at the food in the dishes. — Chant: "Look at the food in the dishes! Noodles with carrots and peppers …"
