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: 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 ...

5 in a row phonic spinners 4 with scorecards and instructions

Mini Book 10: Brazil in colour and greyscale
I have rewritten this 2005 story to make a suitable for a mini book.

For reading comprehension interact with the children like this: Is Brazil a big or a little country? Show me a (tamarin). Can you (...
