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.

Simple Past Simple 8 with keys
The phonic pattern within these verbs /oo/ representing both common sounds. Once again I am trying to use well known verbs. I am thinking of changing the format slightly for future worksheets in this series to make them a little more challenging.

Marva Collins Phoneme Cards 29-32 of many
After watching The Marva Collins Story on Youtube and seeing some interesting posters on her classroom wall I designed these cards which can be used as game cards, flashcards and posters. The reason I think these are also useful for older students is that it allows them to gain an insight into spelling and phonics and through that the confidence to...

Months of the Year: January and February (4 worksheets color and B & W)

3 pages of Phonic Comics with ea head: worksheet, comic dialogue and key (#33)
Here is another one focusing on /e/ as in head. Notice the head at the top right. I use "head" as a key word to help my students focus on this spelling pattern and sound. The comic dialogue on page 2 is one of my favourites. I hope that you like it. I sometimes make comprehension exercises to go with the worksheets but really it is a lot of work ea...

Simple Past Simple 1 with keys
When you introduce your pupils to the past simple you have also to teach them the spelling rule related to single syllable words where the final consonant is usually doubled after a short vowel. Not in the case of x because that says /ks/. Well I am poor at teaching grammar so this worksheet will do the teaching for me. It is my first and I will ...

Adverbs of Place 2: multi-choice worksheet with answer keys
Let�s be honest, most native speakers cannot distinguish between a preposition of place and an adverb of place, and it does not matter much, but students need to be able to pass tests, so they need this knowledge. The location of the first worksheet is here: https://www.eslprintables.com/grammar_worksheets/adverbs/adverbs_of_place/Adverbs_of_Pla...
