Quantifier

Quantifiers are words put before nouns to show how many there are.

Example
‘A few', ‘some', ‘seven' and ‘all' are quantifiers.

In the classroom
Pelmanism games are a good way to practice quantifiers, as is using the realia of the classroom itself, for example ‘some chairs', ‘a few students', ‘all the books' etc.
