MES-English.com offers free ESL worksheets for download and printing.  There are talking worksheets, worksheets for grammar introduction, printable phonics e-books, writing worksheets and more.  See each section for more information.  By downloading and using any of these resources you agree to the end user license agreement.  Please read it.

There are

writing exercises and ABC worksheets

  for download as well. There is a free phonics ebook series available for download.  The Fun Fonix series is designed for ESL students but may be useful for home schooling, pre-K through to K-2, or students struggling with phonics.

There are many writing exercises available on the internet and none is better than the other.  I try to provide a consistent format that is well laid out and provides optimal practice in the least amount of space.  Hopefully, it is also fun.

Also, many ELL students are older than 6 and don't need pages and pages of practice.  These are pretty concise but can be used over and over again if necessary.

Fun Fonix is an ESL phonics series that is designed to move quickly through phonics rules and is ideal or teachers with limited time for phonics instruction but also want to provide an adequate amount of practice.  The vocabulary is designed for ELL and encourages reading by quick acknowledgement of what they've read.

These are

free downloads

  and you may provide them to your students for free.  Institutions or persons requiring more than 50 copies per year of any book or part there of must pay a one time licensing fee of $49.99 .  That will also allow you to charge up to $10 for each copy of the book and covers all of the books in the series. You will receive new copies of the books to be downloaded with a price of $10 written on the cover. 

The files are large.  Save yourself some time and take a look at the sample sheets first to see if these books are what you're looking for.

I've tried more complicated images but ended up using very simple. cute images for these books.  I think the students like them because they can reproduce them themselves.  With more complicated images like the ones you see in other resources on this site, the students don't feel like they can draw something similar.

Next in the series: Coming in 2008

Fun Fonix Book 2:

digraphs ch, sh, th, ck, ng, qu

Fun Fonix Book 3:

long vowels with silent e

Fun Fonix Book 4:

vowel digraphs ee. ea. ai, oo, oa

You can make your own practice sheets* using the Fun Fonix images.  Just check out the clipart page here in the

worksheet

  section.  There are 225 images posted from the intro book and book 1.
