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.

Dealing with Countries (Get a Country) 3-4 of 6 (with backs)

I haven�t yet printed out cards for myself, but I�m confident that it is a worthwhile game and will probably make it available commercially. Of course you get it for free. If you see any major errors like a wrong flag or someth...
