Problem Overview:
The task is to convert singular nouns into their plural forms by adding an "s" to each noun. This exercise focuses on understanding the basic rule of forming plurals for most nouns in English.
Solution:
We will go through each noun and add an "s" to form its plural form. Here are the solutions:
1.
table →

2.
friend →

3.
spoon →

4.
hat →
hats
5.
phone →

6.
lamp →

7.
cow →

8.
teacher →

9.
car →

10.
park →

11.
plant →

12.
toy →

13.
book →

14.
zebra →
zebras
15.

16.

Explanation:
- The instruction specifies that we should add an "s" to make the plural form of each noun.
- For all the nouns listed, simply appending an "s" at the end correctly forms the plural form.
- This method works for most regular nouns in English. However, it's important to note that some nouns have irregular plural forms (e.g., "child" becomes "children"), but this worksheet focuses on regular nouns where the rule applies directly.
Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{ll}
1. \text{tables} & 2. \text{friends} \\
3. \text{spoons} & 4. \text{hats} \\
5. \text{phones} & 6. \text{lamps} \\
7. \text{cows} & 8. \text{teachers} \\
9. \text{cars} & 10. \text{parks} \\
11. \text{plants} & 12. \text{toys} \\
13. \text{books} & 14. \text{zebras} \\
15. \text{rocks} & 16. \text{stores} \\
\end{array}
