Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)
- Have learners read sentences containing collective nouns e.g. team of players, a class of, a swarm of bees, a troop of monkeys, a flock of sheep, a bunch of keys. - Explain to learners that collective nouns behave like singular nouns. Therefore, they are used with singular verbs. - Provide the collective nouns and their groups for learners to identify. Let them form sentences using the collective nouns. e.g. i. A bunch of keys is on the table. ii. A team of players is running around the field. - Have learners form sentences with collective nouns.
