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.

The coloured worksheets can be used for letter formation, reading and vocabulary or even as classrom posters. The B & W worksheets are more challenging and additionally can be used for reading compr...

Worksheets and reuploaded Learning Letters Uu and Vv: 8 worksheets
Almost there. Not entirely satisfied with the result as perfection is never quite reached. Someone planted the seed for making similar worksheets for numbers. I have not done any of those before. Children trace over the lower case and upper case letters, key words and simple sentences, read the words and sentences, then colour the worksheets. Ver...

Irregular Plurals Boardgame
Here is a boardgame which could force me to call a "dice" a "die". Sure sounds politically incorrect, "DIE please!", so I�ll stick with "dice" for both the singular and plural, though you may have your own preferences. Others: sheep-sheep, foot-feet, child-children, tooth-teeth, ox-oxen, man-men, mouse-mice, elf-elves, goose-geese, woman-women, wo...

Phonic flash cards and posters #3: 5 pages
This is a little over 500 KBs so happy to see it upload. Notice that I have inserted diacritic lines above some of the letters. If you need to remove them just drag or copy the page into MSPaint and you can do it there. I had to use two different fonts because I did not like the Aa on one font and the Uu on the other. I do hope you like the graphic...
