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.

Big or Little: mini dialogues in colour and B & W.
This worksheet can be used with my many of my other materials on big and little, which are uploaded here.

There is no real correct answer but certainly w...

Family Flash Cards: 65-72 of 72

For physical descriptions, "What does your grandfather look like?" and for fashion, "What�s your brother wearing?" I�ll have to try out all these ideas myself...

Suffix Links 3 ee ea e_e: phonics worksheet
Sometimes a child just has to remember. The ee ea and e_e carry the same sound so we cannot know the spelling from the sound alone. We can of course teach some spelling rules, which may help the student to learn which spelling to use, but I prefer to first give the child an opportunity to learn in a natural way as do most native speakers, but with...

Jomo: A reading with comprehension exercises, quizzes and suggestions for use.
Suggestions for use: Have the children read a paragraph each out loud and then you read it. Then have them ask you questions about the vocabulary. �David, what is Mombasa? It�s a big city in Kenya. (You may want to have an atlas or the world map handy.) Ask the children questions about the text and personalize the text as you go along. Who is Fat...

3 pages of Phonic Fun with sh: worksheet, story and key (#7)

Simple Present Game Cards 25-32 of 40
The game is called "Get a Present" The game is designed for 3-6 players, but since there are only 40 cards then deal just 4-5 cards each to begin with and place the remainder of the pack face down in the middle. You can see by the question marks that each card has only one target question, though it is possible, and sometimes necessary, for a...
