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.
