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.

Print 2 sets and play matching games, have reading races, m...

Phonics Criss Cross Puzzle: 4 versions included
I like criss cross puzzles as they make the child think about the whole of the word and not just the beginning and end. They also have to consider the length of the words.

Days of the Week Posters: 2 different posters for boys and girls

Sing a days of the week song and then sing this song to the tune of bah bah black sheep: It�s Tuesday, it is Tuesday. How are you? x 2, then ask a child How are you?...

Mini Book 3: Dog, dog, dog in colour and greyscale
This story (rhyme) is based on a story I wrote about five years ago.

For reading comprehension interact with the children like this: How many dogs in his picture? Show me the (sad dog). Which...

Another three pages of magic e. Page 1: printing practice, page 2: teacher-teacher game card and page : full instructions. 3 worksheets in this series were uploaded in April and one yesterday.

Simple Past Irregular 1 with Keys
I am English, so I worry about my grammar. Hoping my grammar is good and that you, and your students, enjoy this new worksheet from me. If you do, then say so and I will create some more. The first one is always the hardest.
