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.

Capital Track O in full color, black and white and blank.
You can certainly use these with adults, they love them. Lots of new vocabulary and a spelling challenge even for all.

As I get time I will produce the others.Suggestions on how to ...
