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.

Countable Uncountable and Containers flash cards 19-24 of many.
Have you ever taught countables and uncountables in English only and then tried showing students how we can move from uncountable to countable using containers and then numbers (noun-adjectives)? These will help students distinguish between How much? and How many?

Places to go: colour and grayscale
I�m busy producing worksheets for a new workbook, so I though that I should share them here first. Students find the �places� in the word search, write the prepositions under the appropriate pictures and complete the sentences. They can also use the worksheet for practicing dialogues. �Where is the pet shop?� �It�s next to the restaurant.� Inspi...
