In English, when we want to indicate that there is more than one of something, we often change the spelling of the word by adding -ies to the end. This is a common way to form plurals for words that end in a consonant followed by y.
Watch out for words that end in a vowel followed by y. In these cases, simply add an s to form the plural.
Spelling tip: If you are unsure whether to use -ies or simply -s, see if the word ends with a consonant followed by y. If it does, use -ies to create the plural. If it ends with a vowel followed by y, use -s. For example, story becomes stories, but play becomes plays.

One of the students has put in a huge amount of effort in completing Spellzone at least 3 times a week since his arrival with us in January. Looking at his scores after the latest GL testing, his standardised score has risen from 99 to 131. This is a truly phenomenal result. I just wanted to share the best result I have ever seen.
