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?

You can ask the...

Conditional Loopcards: 36 domino cards

Hungry! (In colour and greyscale).
I have rewritten my dialogue to give practice with quantities and food in a restaurant setting. Students read the dialogue, do the vocabulary puzzle (answers are all in the dialogue) and then they do the comprehension questions both orally and written. This worksheet can also be used in role play.

I spy occupations poster 2 and new criss cross worksheet: words and pictures
I was surprised at how many comments and downloads the first one (http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=451098#thetop) recieved, so I guess you like it. Here is another, the last I suspect as it takes an age to do and I doubt I can think up another set of job titles. Many more occupations in this poster. Make small groups and give each gro...

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. Usually I play with just 18 of the 24 riddle-calling cards and then each child will end up with at least 1 bingo and everyone finishes the game at the same time. If we play in the Christmas party then they get choco...

New Alphabet Tracks: letter i in full color, black and white and blank.
This is another of my "new" "Alphabet Tracks" Another idea is to provide players with a list of the words and they have to try and complete the ‘spelling’ track without any errors and without reference to the list. The child holding the list checks the spelling of the other player/s. More information and a key inside. Today�s other con...

Restaurant Dialogues: breakfast, lunch, dinner and fast food (8 dialogues)
These activity-cards can be used as worksheets for your students to write in the missing information and as guided "restaurant dialogues". They are designed for pairwork when used for conversation. I couldn�t find such cards here nor on the internet so I had no choice but to go it alone.
