Finish the grids with the rules on p. 23

Leave the grey "rule" row open for now.

Ex. 5e p. 23

"Hopes", "catches" and "does" are all 3rd person singular.

All of those verbs end in "s", yet they all sound different.

In English we have 3 different sounds in the third person singular:

/s/ >> Hopes

/IZ/ >> Catches

/Z/ >> Does

5e) Listen to the verbs, and sort them into the correct column.

Sort the verbs into the /s/, /iz/ or /z/ column.

p. 23

Make ex. 6 p. 24
