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.

Impossibility Activity Cards with Can youI...? reuploaded
I first made these in 2009 but they then contained iclipart images which are allowed in my books but not allowed to share online. I have always planned to renew them but I couldn�t find the original templates so I started again. I�m not sure how many cards I will make but these cards all focus on �impossibility� and in English we usually give "No!"...

What do they want to do?: in colour and grayscale with answer key.
Another hard to find worksheet using -want to do-. Children read the sentences, number the pictures and fill in the blanks with suitable verbs. Before I use this I�m planning on reviewing some common verbs using the present continuous and then introducing and practicing the structure �He/She wants to��, then we will comb...

Dealing with Countries (Get a Country) 3-4 of 6 (with backs)
This is the last. If you missed the others then go to my account and select "newest first". These took a while to design. I haven�t yet printed out cards for myself, but I�m confident that it is a worthwhile game and will probably make it available commercially. Of course you get it for free. If you see any major errors like a wrong flag or someth...

3 pages of Phonic Fun with ou: worksheet, story and key (#10)
Hi, See my account for other worksheets in this series. The stories are classified as "decodable", but unlike many so called decodable stories these have over 90 percent decodable text as opposed to the 40- 60 percent found in most "phonic readers" I mix sentence fragments with grammatically correct sentences as fragments are often easier for beg...

This or That worksheet
I thank sweetsuna for the idea (http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=147422#thetop) I wanted to create something a little more child centred, without all the instructions and explanations. I hope I have achieved this.
