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.

Clean or Dirty? Worksheet, Backs for Cards, Game Suggestions and Answer Key

Restaurant Dialogues: breakfast, lunch, dinner and fast food (8 dialogues)
These activity-cards can be used as worksheets for your students to write in the missing information and as guided "restaurant dialogues". They are designed for pairwork when used for conversation. I couldn�t find such cards here nor on the internet so I had no choice but to go it alone.

InTense Board Game (1 of 3)
I sell this game in Japan. It�s one of the best games for getting students to use verbs in the creation of natural and unique sentences. How to play the game (in pairs): You will need a die and counter for each team or pair. Players, within teams, take turns to throw the die and move forward by the number shown. All teams are in play together. I...

Mini Book: A Big Bed in colour and greyscale
This is my first effort at a mini book, I was inspired to create it when I used one of Julia�s great mini books (http://www.eslprintables.com/printable.asp?id=431895#thetop) in my classroom. The children really enjoyed making and reading their books. I wrote today�s story about 5 years ago but I rarely use it in class. Now with the mini book I ...

Marva Collins Phoneme Cards 21-24 of many
After watching The Marva Collins Story on Youtube and seeing some interesting posters on her classroom wall I designed these cards which can be used as game cards, flashcards and posters. I know that the x in X-ray does not make just the x sound but the idea is to that you have an X-ray camera in your hand that that goes /x/ when you take a picture...

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.

Lost in Sydney: directions and prepositions with answer key and extras.
The focus is on the prepositions and directions with a side target of prepositions of movement in sports. Students should have some knowledge of prepositions and directions before attempting this worksheet. I have added a couple of spoilers into the word banks. Pages 3 and 4 can be used as part of a correspondence course if need be.

Christmas Loopcards 2 (expanded and re-uploaded)
It is a domino type game except that the children must form a loop with the cards. You can print out a few sets and have children race to see which team wins first. If I do during a Christmas party, then I reward the children with chocolates. The original (re-uploaded) cards were designed for nonreaders and of course can be used in any language, th...
