Dear Melissa,

I hope you are well. Guess what! I am having a big party next week at my house and I am inviting all my close friends. The theme of the party is going to be Harry Potter, so all must dress accordingly. You would make a great witch! I need to let everyone know by Wednesday since I am throwing the party next Saturday. Sam is going to decorate the house and my mother is going bake a cake and make lots of food. There is going to be music and dancing as well. John is going to be the DJ. You can stay over at my house. It’s going to be great! I hope to see you then.

 Love,

 Sarah

QUANTIFIERS

Uncountable Nouns (Quantifiers #1)  

	Because uncountable nouns in English do not have plurals and cannot be counted in the normal way, quantifiers are often used as a way of "measuring" them. The basic quantifiers are some, any, a little, and a lot of, but there are many more. One group of quantifiers is common with food and items found at home: the names of the containers in which the items are sold:
	quantifier (container)		uncountable nouns
	a bag of _____		candy, flour, sugar, rice
	a bottle of _____		water, wine, beer, ketchup (catsup), vinegar, juice, soy sauce, cooking oil, olive oil, salad dressing, soda, aspirin (or other medicine)
	a box of _____		detergent, salt, candy, cereal, chalk, baking soda, pasta, jello, sugar
	a can of _____		fruit, motor oil, beer, soda, baking powder, paint
	a carton of _____		soda, ice cream, milk, creamer, juice
	a jar of _____		jam, jelly, mustard, relish, fruit, mayonnaise
	a pack of _____		gum
	a package of _____		meat
	a six-pack of _____		beer, soda
	a tin of _____		aspirin
	a tub of _____		margarine
	a tube of _____		toothpaste, lipstick, shampoo
	___________________________________________ Special Note: These containers can also be used for countable nouns: a bag of potato chips / potatoes / apples / onions / groceries; a box of paper clips / cigars / envelopes / kleenex / crackers / chocolates; a can of beans (and other fruits and vegetables); a carton of cigarettes / eggs; a jar of olives / pickles; a pack of cigarettes / razor blades; a tin of sardines ACTIVITY https://quizlet.com/192955319/containers-countableuncountable-nouns-flash-cards/
