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.

Months of the Year: January and February (4 worksheets color and B & W)

There are some real poor worksheets out there, so I fill another gap with this new series, which I hope you will enjoy. A unique design to indicate the northern and southern hemispheres. I intend to use 24 cou...

Yy Picture Covers: An exercise in phonics with answer key and cumulative notes.

Countable Uncountable and Containers flash cards 7-12 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)? Use these cards for pair work. What do you want? I want some flour. How much flour do you want? I want a 25 pound bag of flour.

Clean or Dirty Cards 13-24 (of 24) with answer key (for worksheet) and game suggestions
Clean and Dirty may seem to be simple concepts it is a relative concept. An pig may always seem dirty to me but not always so to another pig. Anyway, in this set there are 10 pairs of flash cards (20 different cards) with backs and a worksheet. The worksheet follows my hot/cold worksheet design from long ago.

Marva Collins Phoneme Cards 33-36 of many
After watching The Marva Collins Story on Youtube and seeing some interesting posters on her classroom wall I designed these cards which can be used as game cards, flashcards and posters. The reason I think these are also useful for older students is that it allows them to gain an insight into spelling and phonics and through that the confidence to...

To make, print out onto thick paper or thin card, laminate, trim the edges, cut the vertical center lines, then all the horizontal lines, round the corners and this will give you 36 domino cards. Children match the cards and in doing so create a single loop or circle (square is fine). They can race against the clock, asking questions such as "What...

InTense Board Game activity cards 13-24 of 36
I uploaded these yesterday but there was some problem so I�m trying again. Roll the die and change the pronoun and tense and form a sentence. My parents acted in a new action film. Rover, my dog, is acting in a new Hollywood film. Every single sentence that your students utter has the chance of being unique and that is how it should be unless one i...

Pronoun Flashcards: 25-36 of 70
This collection of cards will eventually evolve into a game, but in the meantime use them by seeing which student can give the longest possible answer, the most creative answer or the most answers for one question. Some of these cards may be also found on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/groups/blendingahand/ (which is my group).
