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.

Phonic Alphabet Circle with instructions
A few teachers are downloading my early learning resources, so I will continue for a little while to upload more at this easy starter level.
