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.

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. If you missed any just go to my account and click on Newest First. I am using the capital letters A, E, I, O and U to introduce vocabulary with long vowel sounds. Suggestions on how to use the worksh...

Mini Book 9: Seaman Dean in colour and greyscale
This will be my last contribution for awhile but I promise to get back to you ASAP. Still plenty of good stuff to come from other members in my absence. This is an adaptation of a slightly longer story I wrote in 2007. I dedicate this story to Moravc for requesting I do something with double sounds. This story targets the /ee/ sound with the spell...

Countable Uncountable and Containers flash cards 7-12 of many.
Have you ever taught countables and uncountables in English only and then tried showing students how we can move from uncountable to countable using containers and then numbers (noun-adjectives)? Use these cards for pair work. What do you want? I want some flour. How much flour do you want? I want a 25 pound bag of flour.

The student poster can be used in many ways, for example cut out pictures and have students stick them into their notebook and ask questions like "What�s he doing?" The classroom poster, which can be printed clearly at A3 size, can be dis...

Which Way? A unique board game for practising everyday actions
I like to build in an uncertainty factor into my boardgames. This game has 3 "CHANCE" squares which will send the player to another position on the board increasing the length of the game and giving students more repetition and practice in a fun way. You will find instructions for the game and the key inside. I have included a greyscale and blank ...

Ask your students questions: When is your birthday? When is...

To solve this problem I have created these cards. Now tell me about your girlfriend/mother. Male cards coming so...
