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.

Adverbs and Adjectives 2 (series 2) with keys
This is the second in a new series, which focuses on longer adjectives and adverbs. Students complete the word search, crossword and read the sentences to distinguish the context to help them choose the correct adverb or adjective to complete each sentence. These take quite a time for me to make, so they may be intermittent.

Worksheets and reuploaded Learning Letters Ww and Xx: 8 worksheets

Children trace over the lower case and upper case letters, key words and simple sentences, read the words and sentences, then colour the worksheets. Very suitable for parents with young ...

Places to go: colour and grayscale
I�m busy producing worksheets for a new workbook, so I though that I should share them here first. Students find the �places� in the word search, write the prepositions under the appropriate pictures and complete the sentences.
