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.

Suffix Links 2 ay ay a_e: phonics worksheet
Sometimes a child just has to remember. The ai ay and a_e carry the same sound so we cannot know the spelling from the sound alone.

The Alphabet
Hi, I designed this for a classroom display. All the pictures are representations of the anchor words which I use in the teaching of phonics. If you have access to an A3 sized printer then it is possible to print this out clearly at this size, you can even make mini flash cards of them. You can also print at for example A5 size and stick a copy in...

The Land Animal Alphabet with key
I searched online and could not find an alphabet poster with only land animals, so now there is one. It should printout clearly even at an A3 size. I put in a key as even native speakers may struggle to name all the animals.
