The post Comparative and Superlative Adjectives – ESL Charts first appeared on Woodward English.]]>
Comparative and Superlative Adjectives in English – ESL/ELL Charts

Comparatives and superlatives are used to compare people, places, or things.
ESL students sometimes say “more fast” instead faster or “more good” instead of better.
Our charts are a summary of the main rules regarding the spelling and correct use of comparatives and superlatives in English.

These charts are divided into the following:
– Summary chart (general rules)
– The difference between a comparative and a superlative.
– Adjectives with one syllable – adding -ER and -EST
– One-syllable adjectives ending in E. (e.g. nice, strange)
– Doubling the final consonant (e.g. big, hot)
– Two-syllable adjectives ending in Y. (e.g. happy, crazy)
– Adjectives with two or more syllables (e.g. famous, expensive)
– Two exceptions – Good and Bad

These charts about comparative adjectives and superlative adjectives and not adverbs.

I have also created a video on YouTube about this topic: Comparative and Superlative Adjectives – English Grammar Lesson (Suitable for the classroom).
You can watch this free video to have a better idea of the contents and examples of each chart.

(Sounds of ED)
ESL/ELL Teacher Resource

The post ED Pronunciation – ESL Listening Activity first appeared on Woodward English.]]>
Pronunciation of ED – Sounds of ED – ESL Listening Activity

The objective of this activity is to help students distinguish the sounds of ED at the end of words in English.

The teacher (guide) has 3 lists of words ending in -ED (they are all regular past tense verbs). Each list contains 18 words. The teacher reads out each word from a list and students need to write the word they hear in the correct column according to the final ED sound each word has.
There are three columns for students to choose from: /t/ – /d/ – /id/
For example, when the teacher says “wanted”, students need to write that word in the “/id/” column.
Not only are students becoming more aware of the three sounds of -ED, but this activity can also double as a spelling exercise.
As mentioned before, there are three lists. Each list could be used on different days. Note that List 3 has slightly more challenging words.

Teacher answer keys have been created which can also be used by students to check their own work. There is a separate page for each list of 18 words.

This resource is ideal for ESL/ELL students to help them sound more like a native speaker when it comes to saying words that end in ED (accent reduction).

I have created a pronunciation video on YouTube about this topic: ED pronunciation in English – How to pronounce ED endings (Suitable for the classroom).

Regular and Irregular Nouns in English – Summary Charts

These charts look at the spelling rules used when making nouns plural. They cover both regular and irregular plural forms.

Plurals Summary Chart
This chart is a summary of the nine spelling rules that appear below, all in one handy place. It is great as a quick reference guide for students.
Regular Nouns
Nouns where we add an -S to make them plural. There are no other changes to the noun. The example nouns are car, dog, book, house, and apple.
Nouns ending in S, CH, SH, X, Z
Nouns with these endings and where we need to add -ES to make them plural. The example nouns are bus, match, dish, box, and quiz.
Nouns ending in F or FE
Nouns with these endings and how we remove them and add -VES to make the nouns plural. The example nouns are leaf, wolf, life, and knife. There are two exceptions to this rule that also appear in this chart: roofs and cliffs.
Nouns ending in VOWEL + Y
These are regular nouns where we just add the -S to the plural. The example nouns are day, key, boy, guy, and donkey. This chart exists to be able to compare it with the next chart about nouns ending in a consonant + Y.
Nouns ending in CONSONANT + Y
We remove the end Y and add -IES to these nouns to make them plural. The example nouns are city, baby, story, party, and country.
Irregular Nouns
These are nouns that have a completely different plural form compared to its singular form. The example nouns are man, child, foot, tooth, mouse, and person.
Nouns ending in VOWEL + O
These are regular nouns where we just add the S to make them plural. The example nouns are zoo, radio, stereo, video, and kangaroo. This chart exists to be able to compare it with the next chart about nouns ending in a consonant + O.
Nouns ending in CONSONANT + O
We add -ES to these nouns to make them plural. The example nouns are hero, echo, tomato, and potato. We also show some exceptions to the rule where we only add an -S. These words are piano and photo.
Nouns that don’t change in plural
These are the nouns that have the same form in singular and plural. The example nouns are sheep, deer, fish, series, species

These charts can be used for decorating the classroom wall or as a part of literary centers. Some teachers also photocopy these and make a booklet for students.
