I am now, after more than 5 decades in the work force, officially semi-retired. New hobby: gardening. Old hobby restarting: table tennis. I still have some classes to teach and materials to design, many of which I will continue to share with the dear members of ESLPs. You may come across my materials on Facebook and my blog.

3 Magic pages of Phonic Fun with o_e: worksheet, story and key (#24)

Question Tag Loopcards: 30 different tag cards in all.
Here is one way of using the �loopcards�. Deal out all the cards face up.

3 Magic pages of Phonic Fun with i_e: worksheet, story and key (#23)
Hi, The story is different to most as it is factual. Yesterday my computer broke, but luckily I could have it repaired though the technician said I need a new one.

This is the 3rd one today. Got two teenage children coming back from Spain (WYD) on Sunday, so I�ll be taxi driver for a while. I have not started using these worksheets yet but I am sure they will be popular. It must be exciting to write your own book at such a young age.
