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.

3 pages of Phonic Comics with au: worksheet, comic dialogue and key (#32)
Hi, I was tempted to call the postman "Mr Lisgo" because I was a postman a long time ago. "Laundromat" is American English so just tell your students the guy is in New York. "Faucet" is not a word which most British people know, but "tap" doesn�t fit in here. I am coming to the end of this series. I do have quite a few more stories, which only...

Mini Book 4: Missing Pet in colour and greyscale
This is an adaptation of a story I wrote in 2007. This story uses only phonically regular words, 5 short vowels and a limited number of consonants as well as the words �my� and �the�, which the children have met in previous stories. For reading comprehension interact with the children like this: What is missing? What�s in/on the�? What colour is ...

Impossibility Activity Cards with Can youI...? reuploaded
I first made these in 2009 but they then contained iclipart images which are allowed in my books but not allowed to share online. I have always planned to renew them but I couldn�t find the original templates so I started again. I�m not sure how many cards I will make but these cards all focus on �impossibility� and in English we usually give "No!"...

Mini Book 12: Zimbabwe in colour and greyscale
I have rewritten this 2005 story to make a suitable for a mini book. This story uses only single letter sounds apart from the long o sound in gold and tobacco, so early readers and dyslexics should have little difficulty in reading it. For reading comprehension interact with the children like this: Where is Zimbabwe? What 3 big cats live in Zim...

Worksheets and reuploaded Learning Letters Uu and Vv: 8 worksheets
Almost there. Not entirely satisfied with the result as perfection is never quite reached. Someone planted the seed for making similar worksheets for numbers. I have not done any of those before. Children trace over the lower case and upper case letters, key words and simple sentences, read the words and sentences, then colour the worksheets. Ver...

Introduce Yourself: 4 character cards and backs (6 pages)
I got the idea for these from Micah. Some ways to use them: Print out and laminate. Give one card to a student and have her introduce herself as the character. Use the other card to ask the other students about the character or for an added challenge have the students ask each other. Have a student introduce the character in the third person ...
