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 flash cards and posters #3: 5 pages
This is a little over 500 KBs so happy to see it upload. Notice that I have inserted diacritic lines above some of the letters.

I do hope you like the graphic...

Hi, I�m having (and giving you) a break from phonics. I couldn�t find my opposites crossword so I decided to make this exercise as I must teach adjectives and opposites this week.
