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.

Worksheets and reuploaded Learning Letters Qq and Rr: 8 worksheets

ABC mini-books Dd and Ee: Colour, B & W and blank books (6 pages plus suggestions for use)

Ask your students questions: When is your birthday? When is...

New Alphabet Tracks: letter h in full color, black and white and blank.
This is another of my "new" "Alphabet Tracks" Another idea is to provide players with a list of the words and they have to try and complete the ‘spelling’ track without any errors and without reference to the list.

Adverbs and Adjectives: puzzles and keys
Students complete the word search and crossword, then complete the sentences with a suitable adverb from the word search or the correct form of the adjective given in the crossword. This may be a new project for me, depending on the response I get. Putting fun back into the classroom, I hope.
