Grammar

singular or plural

Should it be the singular or plural words in these sentences?

I don’t want to miss any of the “lecture or lectures”. I think “lectures” is the correct choice!

Thanks a lot, teacher.
Mister Micawber#1 choice depends only on how many lectures are involved.
So does that mean if one lecture is involved, it would be correct and would imply that I don’t want to miss any part of it; and if more the one lecture is involved, it would imply that I don’t want to miss both of them?

I am assuming the same applies to the word 'class' instead of 'lecture' in these sentences. Have I assumed correctly?
