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.

3 pages of Phonic Comics with au: worksheet, comic dialogue and key (#32)
Hi,
I was tempted to call the postman "Mr Lisgo" because I was a postman a long time ago. "Laundromat" is American English so just tell your students the guy is in New York. "Faucet" is not a word which most British people know, but "tap" doesn�t fit in here.

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.

For reading comprehension interact with the children like this: How many dogs in his picture?
Show me the (sad dog).

What is the name of the holiday resort?
What color is the sand?
What is a lad/lass?
What are t...

Mini Book 14: Hunting in colour and greyscale
I wish I could do more but other work has priority right now, sorry. I have reformatted this 2005 story to make a suitable for a mini book. This story uses only single letter sounds, so early readers and dyslexics should have little difficulty in reading it.
