Rewrite each group of words using a possessive noun.
• A possessive noun names who or what owns something. A possessive
noun can be common or proper.
• A singular possessive noun names one owner. A plural possessive noun
names more than one owner.
• If a plural noun is regular and ends in -s, add an apostrophe to make it a
possessive noun.
• If a plural noun is irregular and does not end in -s, add an apostrophe
and -s to make it possessive.
