I wish to add some suggestion to your definition of Countable and Uncountable nouns. What you have there could be misleading to second language learners. It is much easier to say that countable nouns form plurals and must take a/an and/or numerals before them in the singular while uncountable ones do not form plurals and do not take a/an before them. If one should follow your definition, one would come to the conclusion that all things that can be counted must neccessarily be countable nouns. This is not true about English.

Thanks.
