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 Fun with ir: worksheet, story and key (#12)
Hi, See my account for other worksheets in this series. The stories are classified as "decodable", but unlike many so called decodable stories these have over 90 percent decodable text as opposed to the 40- 60 percent found in most "phonic readers" I mix sentence fragments with grammatically correct sentences as fragments are often easier for beg...

Simple Present Game Cards 25-32 of 40
The game is called "Get a Present" and I will tell you a little about it each day and put all the info together in the end. The cards do take time to make so do be patient; as if I am. You can see by the question marks that each card has only one question. You can put a twist in the game when the answer is No, she isn�t., the person asking the qu...

Demonstrative Pronoun Poster
I was looking online for demonstrative pronoun flash cards, but their is not much of value out there. This one is more of a reference card for children to use when using demonstrative pronouns in speaking or writing activities. I�ll probably make some flash cards/activity cards to go with this at a later date.

Quite the Opposite: illustrated fill the gap exercise with key
Hi, I�m having (and giving you) a break from phonics. I couldn�t find my opposites crossword so I decided to make this exercise as I must teach adjectives and opposites this week. I�m sure that most students will not need instructions, but if you see a blank page then give the student a little help until that "Aha!" moment.

Quantifying Flash Cards: "a few" and "a little"

There are a few monkeys in the barrel. How many monkeys are in the barrel? A few. What�s in the barrel? A few monkeys. There is a little food on the table. How much is ...? and so on. I ...

Adjective Poster 3 (reuploaded)
I have replaced the clipart from iclipart and added a few more adjectives. This poster covers all the "y" ending adjectives used in my recent Read! Spell! Do! cards. The poster can be displayed in the classroom for children to check correct usage of adjectives and correct spelling during written work.

Physical descriptions: female The question "What is she like?" can mean "What does she look like?" and/or "What is her character/personality like?", but students may give such answers as "She likes spaghetti." or "She likes dancing." To solve this problem I have created these cards. Now tell me about your girlfriend/mother. Male cards coming so...
