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 more pages of Phonic Fun with or: worksheet, story and key (#20)
Hi, I�m quite busy right now that�s why my worksheets are not being produced and uploaded regularly. Perhaps I�ll have more time next week. See my account for other worksheets in this series. The stories are classified as "decodable", but unlike many so called decodable stories these have over 90 percent decodable text as opposed to the 40- 60...

3 more pages of Phonic Fun with ow: worksheet, story and key (#16)
Hi, See my account for other worksheets in this series. The stories are classified as "decodable", but unlike many so called decodable stories these have over 90 percent decodable text as opposed to the 40- 60 percent found in most "phonic readers" I mix sentence fragments with grammatically correct sentences as fragments are often easier for beg...

3 More pages of Phonic Fun with th: worksheet, story and key (#4)
Hi, If you wish to edit the "word bank" out, open the document, copy the file, paste into MSPaint and erase the word bank. This is my fourth worksheet in the series.

3 pages of Magic e Fun with e_e: Printing Practice, Teacher teacher card and full instructions
Another three pages of magic e. Page 1: printing practice, page 2: teacher-teacher game card and page : full instructions. 3 worksheets in this series were uploaded in April and one yesterday. This is the last in this mini series. I could not make a "phonic folder" for e_e because there is not enough suitable vocabulary for doing so.

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...

3 pages of Phonic Comics with aw: worksheet, comic dialogue and key (#32)
I have finally finished another phonic worksheet, this one focusing on /aw/. Notice the saw at the top right. I use "saw" as a key word to help my students focus on this spelling pattern and sound. I�m using some of these worksheets with a uni class and they really enjoy them and they always learn some new vocabulary. Lots more phonic fun worksheet...

3 pages of Phonic Comics with ea head: worksheet, comic dialogue and key (#33)
Here is another one focusing on /e/ as in head. Notice the head at the top right. I use "head" as a key word to help my students focus on this spelling pattern and sound. The comic dialogue on page 2 is one of my favourites. I hope that you like it. I sometimes make comprehension exercises to go with the worksheets but really it is a lot of work ea...

3 pages of Phonic Comics with ew: worksheet, comic dialogue and key (#30)
Hi, There are 3 of my worksheets today. The "ew" sound has two distinct pronunciations. American and British pronunciations are clearly different in some cases. Whenever possible I avoid using words which have alternative spellings so more teachers can use these difficult to edit worksheets. For example I avoided the use of jewelry/jewellery. A...

3 pages of Phonic Comics with ey: worksheet, comic dialogue and key (#31)
Hi, There are 3 of my worksheets today. This story/dialogue is one of my favourites as it is based on facts. My young son "Jonathan" (ignoring my warning) ran in front of a car and had his leg broken. My students love rolling on the floor shouting "My leg! My leg! My leg!" It is possible that this worksheet will take me past the 5000 point mark ...

3 pages of Phonic Comics with oi: worksheet, comic dialogue and key (#33)
Hi, This "Disaster Report" dialogue is topical and I wonder if the oilmen in the Gulf of Mexico will come up with a better excuse, Unfortunately soap and water will not always do the trick (solve the problem). I am coming to the end of this series. I do have quite a few more stories, which only use the basic 26 alphabet sounds, but I don�Lt plan o...
