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.

Marva Collins Phoneme Cards 29-32 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...

Quite the Opposite: illustrated fill the gap exercise with key
Hi, I�m having (and giving you) a break from phonics. I couldn�t find my opposites crossword so I decided to make this exercise as I must teach adjectives and opposites this week.

Look out for the big pictionary which is here http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=567218#thetop and the big little bingo which is coming in a day or so. This worksheet complements my earlier work re...
