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.

Countable Uncountable and Containers flash cards 1-6 of many.
Have you ever taught countables and uncountables in English only and then tried showing students how we can move from uncountable to countable using containers and then numbers (noun-adjectives)? Maybe you�re a far better teacher than I, as I often end up with blank faces. Perhaps cards such as these will help teachers teach and students unders...

Whose are these? Flashcards 9-16 of 24
Here are some newly made flash cards for practicing the possessive s with "Whose are these?" and occupations. "Whose gloves are these?" "They are the boxer�s gloves." or "Those are the boxer�s gloves." I decided to have fun and give each card its own border. If you print the back, it will be easy to keep the cards together and the right way up. ...

Mini Book 3: Dog, dog, dog in colour and greyscale

Mini Book 14: Hunting in colour and greyscale
I wish I could do more but other work has priority right now, sorry. I have reformatted this 2005 story to make a suitable for a mini book. This story uses only single letter sounds, so early readers and dyslexics should have little difficulty in reading it. Irony or poetic justice is introduced on page 6, hopefully your young students will see th...

3 pages of Phonic Fun with ou: worksheet, story and key (#10)
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...
