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.

Capital Track B in full color, black and white and blank.
This upper case B has a different vocabulary set from the lower case letter. I have thickened some of the lines to help keep the child on the right track. I will make some more over the next week or so. For some letters it will be difficult or even impossible to come up with new vocabulary. Maybe I need a brainwave for these ones. Suggestions on ...

I am also saving in GIF which gives a high resolution, but sometimes loses a little a far as colour is concerned. More de...
