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.

Christmas Bingo boards 8-10 (of 10)
This is the last of the boards. Go to my account to find more. I may upload more Christmas worksheets as we draw closer to Christmas.

If we play in the Christmas party then they get choco...

Mini Book 11: Mexico in colour and greyscale
My last mini book, Brazil, proved very popular with my own pupils so I have done a similar one on Mexico. The children really enjoyed my comprehension questions and my personalisation of the story when I ask them related questions about Japan. More information on this story and how to use it can be found on page 3. Sorry that I haven�t been very ...

Continental Quest. Capital Q track game in full colour, greyscale and blank
Not enough vocabulary for my usual track game so I made this new game for practising countries and continents, as well as national flag recognition and country shapes. This game is a natural follow up or precursor to my "Dealing with Countries" game. If you do not have it then check my account. I could not make a black and white version but have ...

Play, Do, Go: in colour and grey scale with answer key
See what sports the animals do (and play) and simply explain the verb usage with this worksheet, which is ideal for teaching the usage of �play�, �do� and �go� in relation to sports. If you have young or visual learners or if you are struggling to explain this point to your students, then you need this. Good timing for the Olympics.
