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.

What do they want?: Colour and greyscale with answer keys.
I first searched here and on the net for a WANT worksheet; very difficult to find one, so here you are. Four puzzles in one worksheet. Have the students identify the characters, complete the criss cross puzzle and write the appropriate title under each picture. Then they do the word search puzzle and finally write the sentences. More suggestions in...

Double the number of flash cards today with 16 to this worksheet. This set of unique flash cards which, if you download them all, will eventually morph into a game of "Switchit" (an UNO sort of game). I will include the answer key to all the cards in my final upload today.

3 pages of Phonic Fun with oy: worksheet, story and key (#14)
Hi, See my account for other worksheets in this series. The stories are classified as "decodable", but unlike many so called decodable stories these have over 90 percent decodable text as opposed to the 40- 60 percent found in most "phonic readers" I mix sentence fragments with grammatically correct sentences as fragments are often easier for beg...

Months of the Year: September and October (4 worksheets color and B & W)
Just two months to go. I�ll try and find time to make them tomorrow. A unique design to indicate the northern and southern hemispheres. I intend to use 24 countries altogether. We really need for children to get a grasp of the wider world. They trace over the words, color when using the B & W worksheet, then read what they have written.

Adverbs of Degree 2 multi-choice worksheet with answer keys
Even native speakers can get by with a relatively small number of adverbs when speaking, but a large number of them is necessary when it comes to reading and writing. They can also be a lot of fun to learn. Another one of my "Adverbs of Degree" worksheets can be found here: https://www.eslprintables.com/grammar_worksheets/adverbs/adverbs_of_mann...

Countable Uncountable and Containers flash cards 31-36 of many.
This is the last for now, though when I get time I would like to do more. This set focused on food and drink, sorry about the chalk and uncountables, so there is room for more cards. 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 th...
