Possesive Nouns/Apostrophe ('s)

Last Tuesday,one of my ninth grade student asked me about the different use of ('s) and (s') in a word.
Wanna know it guys?
Let's we discuss it😉

Take a look on my examples below:

The farmer has a dog ➡ That is the farmer's dog.
The boy has a pen ➡ This is the boy's pen.

The farmers have dogs ➡ Here are the farmers' dogs.
The two boys have pens ➡ These are the two boys' pens.

So,the different is on the object that the subject have. If the object is singular, you've to add ('s) to show that its possesive. But if the object is plural, you've to add (s').

U get it now?😁

To show me whether u understand or not with this topic,let's having fun doing this kind of exercise.

❇Rewrite the sentences using ('s) or (s') to show possession.

1. The wolves teeth are very sharp.
2. She is Danny aunt.
3. The princess skin is very smooth.
4. I know Iris father very well.
5. That is Lim car.
6. The queen is the king wife.
7. Those men bags are under the table.
8. The babbies mothers are here to see them.
9. Mary room is on the left.
10. The birds feathers are very colorful.

G'Luck and Regards😉
