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.

Twin Opposites with a key that acts as an extra worksheet.
Page 1 is relatively easy as it has a word bank. Page 2 acts as a key, but the teacher can do so much more with it. Use it for practising interviews, as a reading comprehension task, for finding the opposites and more. You know the level of your students so you are the one to set any comprehension tasks IMO. You can erase or crop the "Word Bank"...

Capital Track U in full color, black and white and blank.
This is the last one for now. Maybe there will be more capitals in future, but I need to give it some thought as I do not want just more of the same.

Lost in Sydney: directions and prepositions with answer key and extras.
The focus is on the prepositions and directions with a side target of prepositions of movement in sports. Students should have some knowledge of prepositions and directions before attempting this worksheet. I have added a couple of spoilers into the word banks.
