Reviews
Oh, you have no idea how thrilled I am that you mentioned the Easel! I spent a lot of time making Easel activities, and I always wonder if people actually use them! :) Thank you so much for dropping by and leaving this positive review. I'm so pleased that your adult ELLs have gotten a ton of practice out of it and that the ones who need the extra practice are using the Easel. I hope you are having a wonderful week! Happy teaching~! ^_^
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that your adult learners are enjoying the SH vs. CH activities and finding them helpful. I do have many more minimal pairs sets available—including voiced vs. voiceless sounds, tricky vowels, and more. They can be found individually or all together in the convenient Minimal Pairs Mega Bundle if you're looking to expand your collection. Thanks again for the encouragement! Let me know if you are looking for a particular set of minimal pair sounds that I don't yet have. ^_^
