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.

ABC mini-books Dd and Ee: Colour, B & W and blank books (6 pages plus suggestions for use)
Finding suitable vocabulary for the Ee worksheet was difficult. Children never ask What is an eggkid? some teachers do. I have no answer. Back to work today (Thursday), so less time for this task but I will surely continue to the end. Thanks for your comments. I envision that you will use different worksheets with different classes but if you prog...

3 pages of Phonic Fun with oo: worksheet, story and key (#8)
Hi, See my account for other worksheets in this series. I mix sentence fragments with grammatically correct sentences as fragments are often easier for beginners to understand. If you wish to edit the "word bank" out, open the document, copy the file, paste into MSPaint and erase the word bank. There will be many worksheets in the series. Chil...

5 in a row topic spinners 1 with scorecards and instructions
"5 In a Row". Let me describe it as a teacher led activity, though a student can take the part of the teacher or students can play in pairs or groups. A student rolls a (large) dice and calls the number. "Four!" The teacher, out of direct sight of the students, takes a paper clip and pencil or chopstick and spins the clip around the pencil point in...

Around the World in Seven Days: 3 different activity cards
I have been teaching countries and I wanted to combine them with days of the week and came up with this. Have students work in pairs and ask questions like "What are you doing on Sunday?" "I�m going to China." "What are you going to do there?" "I�m going to see the Great Wall." Advanced students can talk about their "Around the World" trip using...

Plural es Loopcards
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 ...

Suffix Links 2 ay ay a_e: phonics worksheet
Sometimes a child just has to remember. The ai ay and a_e carry the same sound so we cannot know the spelling from the sound alone. We can of course teach some spelling rules, which may help the student to learn which spelling to use, but I prefer to first give the child an opportunity to learn in a natural way as do most native speakers, but with...

A, An or Some
Last semester I gave my uni students a lovely worksheet from Ana (Katiana), which used a, an, some, much, many and any as a review, and they did so badly. Don�t blame me. Anyway I have created this one in the hope that they will more than just guess and gain some confidence in their English. I hope you don�t need an answer key at this level.
