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.

Adverbs and Adjectives (series 2) with keys
This is the first in a new series, which focuses on longer adjectives and adverbs. Students complete the word search, crosswords and read the sentences to distinguish the context to help them choose the correct adverb or adjective to complete each sentence.

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...

Mini Book: A Big Bed in colour and greyscale
This is my first effort at a mini book, I was inspired to create it when I used one of Julia�s great mini books (http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=431895#thetop) in my classroom. The children really enjoyed making and reading their books. I wrote today�s story about 5 years ago but I rarely use it in class. Now with the mini book I ...

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 friend caught a huge fish. The tiger is catching fish today. Every single sentence that your students utter has the chance of being unique and that is how it should be unless one is stuck in repeat, repeat...
