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.

Whose are these? Flashcards 9-16 of 24
Here are some newly made flash cards for practicing the possessive s with "Whose are these?" and occupations. "Whose gloves are these?" "They are the boxer�s gloves." or "Those are the boxer�s gloves." I decided to have fun and give each card its own border. If you print the back, it will be easy to keep the cards together and the right way up. ...

Morphed Alphabet Cards Set 2 of 2 (16 cards) with instructions
These cards are very helpful when teaching phonics. Some ideas on how to use them are included. The pictures act as mnemonics. I�ve kept the letters in lowercase as these are usually more difficult to identify than uppercase and small letters are used more than 90 percent of the time in reading and writing. Pages 1-4 Cards. Page 5 instructions....

Question Tag Loopcards: 30 different tag cards in all.
Here is one way of using the �loopcards�. Deal out all the cards face up. Lay the first card in the loop, read the phrase and add the tag to form the question as so. �John�s really confused, isn�t he?� The student with the �isn�t he� tag, lays his card and says ��Karen often feels upset, doesn�t she.� And so the game goes on. You can encourage y...

Hidden card: Lay eight cards (plain backs) face up on the table and allow students time to memorise them. Pick up the cards, shuffle and lay one card facedown on the table and the other cards face up. "Yes!" "Ask me." "Is she picki...

InTense Board Game activity cards 1-12 of 36
I uploaded these yesterday but there was some problem so I�m trying again. Roll the die and change the pronoun and tense and form a sentence. My friend caught a huge fish. The tiger is catching fish today. Every single sentence that your students utter has the chance of being unique and that is how it should be unless one is stuck in repeat, repeat...

Mini Book 13: Black Sands in colour and greyscale
Another short story which I wrote in 2005. This story uses only single letter sounds apart from the word the, so early readers and dyslexics should have little difficulty in reading it. For reading comprehension interact with the children like this: What is the name of the holiday resort? What color is the sand? What is a lad/lass? What are t...
