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.

InTense Board Game activity cards 13-24 of 36

Asking Directions with Answer Key
Students fill in the blanks and practise the dialogues. The editable page is designed for a correspondence type lesson. I deliberately avoided the overuse of the word �straight� as students often think of it as a preposition of movement, which it isn�t.

Physical descriptions: male. Cards 11-20 of 20 with editable backs and instructions.
Physical descriptions: male The question "What is he like?" can mean "What does he look like?" and/or "What is his character/personality like?", but students may give such answers as "He likes spaghetti." or "He likes dancing."

Words and Sentences 3 with answer key.
The first one in the series came out 7 months ago.This one focuses on the affixes -ence and -ance, which are difficult when it comes to spelling because they generally sound the same, if root is ant, then we use ance and if the root is ent we use ence, but English seems to have exceptions everywhere. The key is on page two.
