STEP 1: Explain that now the pupils will learn how to say the plural of vegetables. In order to raise the pupils‟ awareness of the plural of vegetables, you can show a flashcard of a vegetable, for example, a cucumber and say “a cucumber”. Then show a flashcard with a number of cucumbers and say “cucumbers”. Then ask the pupils what “a cucumber” and “cucumbers” mean. Elicit some answers and accept the correct one. Ask the pupil who gave the correct answer to stand up and repeat his/her answer for the class. Further, explain that they can say the plural of the other vegetables in the same way. As an example, you can ask a pupil to stand up. You say a vegetable in the singular, s/he says it in the plural. If necessary help him/her say the plural. Once the pupils have understood how to say the plural of the vegetables, you can do the same with the other vegetables.
