Long /e/: -y and -ie spellings and plurals of words that end in -y

Today, we have reviewed the Long /e/ Sound with the -y spelling and learned about the -ie spelling:

-y like in happy, sunny and family

-ie like in families, candies and babies

Do you know that singular words that end in -y and make the Long /e/ sound transform the letter -y to -ies to make the plural?

one mommy, two mommies

one family, many families

one cherry, many cherries 

We copied the -ie words in our Phonics Dictionary.
