Objective

To understand the structure of affirmative simple present tense sentences using the "Noun + Helping Verb + Noun" pattern and practice converting them into plural forms.

• Helping Verb: The linking verb "is" is used for singular subjects, "are" for plural subjects, and "am" for the first-person singular pronoun "I".
