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.

Mini Book 10: Brazil in colour and greyscale
I have rewritten this 2005 story to make a suitable for a mini book. This story uses only single letter sounds apart from the word �the�, so early readers and dyslexics should have little difficulty in reading it. For reading comprehension interact with the children like this: Is Brazil a big or a little country? Show me a (tamarin). Can you (...

Mini Book 11: Mexico in colour and greyscale
My last mini book, Brazil, proved very popular with my own pupils so I have done a similar one on Mexico. The children really enjoyed my comprehension questions and my personalisation of the story when I ask them related questions about Japan. More information on this story and how to use it can be found on page 3. Sorry that I haven�t been very ...

Jack and Jordan: ability and possibility with key
Again, a lot in a worksheet, a biographical story, reading comprehension, a focus on abilities and possibilities, which requires the student to think somewhat to give decent answers.

Yes/No Questions with Verb To Be 3 and answer keys.

It seems so easy but never-the-less some students struggle. Hope this helps someone somewhere. When done orally encourage students to add comments to their answers to make them more realistic. This is the...

Plural S 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...

Months of the Year: March and April (4 worksheets color and B & W)
I couldn�t upload yesterday as it was my daughters 18th birthday. We picked her up at the airport yesterday evening. I was asked about fonts. They are from here: http://www.fonts4teachers.com/Fonts_4_Teachers_p/ft4.htm I decided not to be too specific with the sentences as they are the hardest part of the worksheet for me to do. Notice some of th...
