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 25-30 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)? Use with the container flash cards to show how we count the containers but often not the contents.

Mini Book 2: In the Attic in colour and greyscale
The success of this story depends a lot on how it is told. Good use of intonation, pausing at the right time, emphasising the new information, putting fear into your voice when calling for "Dad" and receiving or giving a hug (if appropriate) at the end of the story. These simple stories read aloud are excellent for students to practise their own st...

What is green/blue?: 4 worksheets in color and B & W
I was looking on this site for worksheets for young children related to individual colours and found very few so I decided to make another mini series. The coloured worksheets can be used for letter formation, reading and vocabulary or even as classrom posters. The B & W worksheets are more challenging and additionally can be used for reading compr...

What is orange/black and white?: 4 worksheets in color and B & W
Black and white are together. I only have brown and grey to do. I�ll try and make two different grey worksheets to cater for British and American spellings.

Mini Book 9: Seaman Dean in colour and greyscale
This will be my last contribution for awhile but I promise to get back to you ASAP. Still plenty of good stuff to come from other members in my absence. This is an adaptation of a slightly longer story I wrote in 2007. I dedicate this story to Moravc for requesting I do something with double sounds. This story targets the /ee/ sound with the spell...

Countable Uncountable and Containers flash cards 31-36 of many.
This is the last for now, though when I get time I would like to do more. This set focused on food and drink, sorry about the chalk and uncountables, so there is room for more cards. 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 th...

Family Flash Cards: 89-100
These are the last cards in the series which totals 100 cards, so you never have the same family twice. I included these 12 �happy family� cards as I wanted to be able to naturally include the pronoun �we� in activities. "What are your family doing this weekend?" "We are going to Osaka." Which is true as today is my last teaching day, then 12 days ...

Mini Book 16: Cliff is Fit in colour and greyscale
I have rewritten this 2005 story to make a suitable for a mini book and plan to make another mini book about Cliff in future.. This story uses only single letter sounds and the word of, so early readers and dyslexics should have little difficulty in reading it. I usually have the children sit in a circle and read a page at a time, including the fr...
