's is possessive, so you would use it when somebody or something owns something.
Ex: Sarah's food. The dog's foot. The boy's toys. The table's legs.
s' is also possessive, but is used when more than one person or thing owns something.
Ex: There were five dogs. All the dogs' toys were lost.
s is used only when there is more than one of something.
Ex: There were several cats outside. All the kids wanted to play with them.

You ask yourself why there is an s at the end of the word you are making possessive. Does it end in an s because it is a plural? Are we talking about beans or foxes or throat lozenges or ideas?

Are we talking about a glass or Jones or a bonus or Hoss? Because then you use s's and write a glass's volume, Jones's house, the bonus's amount or Hoss's hat.
