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.

Phonics Criss Cross Puzzle: 4 versions included
I like criss cross puzzles as they make the child think about the whole of the word and not just the beginning and end. They also have to consider the length of the words. Such puzzles are not only useful but interesting for the student. This particular puzzle, which comes in 4 different variations, focuses on the spelling patterns and sounds repr...

Christmas Bingo boards 5-7 (of 10)
As promised here are some more boards. Go to my account to find more.

Whose are these? Flashcards 17-24 of 24 with backs and key
Here are some newly made flash cards for practicing the possessive s with "Whose are these?" and occupations. "Whose hats are these?" "They are the clown�s hats." or "Those are the clown�s hats." 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.
