Ninja Kids Clip Art
This 27-piece set is packed with Ninja Kids! Included are colour images of:
- 9 standing ninjas
- 9 pointing ninjas
- 9 greeting ninjas
The Ninja Kids come with different coloured headbands (white, yellow, orange, green, blue, red, purple, brown, black) each corresponding to a Ninja Belt. I've used the Ninja Kids in my lesson materials to help my students master a topic - each colour corresponds to a level of difficulty with the black ninja belt being the most difficult!
All images are in PNG format and have a high resolution for printing and resizing.
Hypothesis Test for a Population Mean - Analogy to a Criminal Trial
This is a student workbook that can supplement lessons on hypothesis tests for a population mean.
I teach the stages of hypothesis testing using analogies to a criminal trial. My students like this comparison; they are more engaged and it helps them to see the relevance of the different stages. Once students are confident with the terminology, we create our own courtroom in the classroom and role-play the stages of hypothesis testing with students acting as the jury, prosecution, judge and defence.
Contents of the workbook
1. A summary of the 5 stages of hypothesis testing
2. A detailed analogy to a criminal trial
3. One worked example
4. Space for students to complete their own examples.
5. Worksheets on:
a. the null and alternative hypothesis
b. type I and type II errors
c. checking assumptions
d. sampling distributions
e. the normal distribution
f. the t-distribution
g. interpreting p-values
Answers for worksheets provided in separate document. The preview file shows a selection of pages from the workbook.
CSI Algebra - Writing and Using Formulae
Here’s a real life CSI application of algebra for your students…
Students have to solve a murder investigation using formulae (writing and substituting). They have to gather evidence at three locations: the crime scene, mortuary and forensic laboratory. Once they have collected their evidence, they examine a suspect list to identify the murderer.
Crime scene – The suspect has left muddy boot prints at the crime scene. Students have to measure the boot print and step length to determine the suspect’s height.
Mortuary – Students have to determine the time of death using body temperature.
Forensic Laboratory – The victim died from chronic arsenic poisoning. Students have to determine for how long the victim was poisoned for.
Answers included.

Here's a real life CSI application of algebra for your students....
There has been a suspicious death. Using their knowledge of formulae and quadratic equations, students have to gather evidence from the crime scene and mortuary to determine (1) who was with the victim moments before death and (2) whether the death was a tragic accident or cold-blooded murder.
At the Crime Scene - The victim died after falling from a balcony. Students have to collect information on the distance of the body from the building to determine whether it was an accidental fall or murder.
At the Mortuary - Students must match a bite mark left on the body with teeth impressions taken from three suspects to find out who was with the victim when he fell.
Answers included.

Maths Posters
Here is a selection of posters for your Maths classroom. Included in your purchase would be 11 posters (pdf files) on the following topics:
Factors
Multiples
Negative Numbers
Square Numbers
Cube Numbers
Fraction Wall
Lines
Triangles
Angles
Area and Perimeter
Circles
Note on Negative Numbers poster - This is one way to help students remember how to multiply and divide negative numbers. Pupils draw a face like in the poster (or simply a circle with the three signs in to represent the eyes and mouth). They cover up the two signs from the multiplication/division problem. The uncovered sign will be for the answer.
CSI Algebra - Using Formulae & Linear Regression
Here's a real life crime scene application of algebra and statistics for your students....
Human skeletal remains have been found on a construction site. Most of the bones have been crushed leaving only a pelvis, femur and tooth for students to examine. Students must identify who the remains belong to using their knowledge of formulae and linear regression. A task involving the normal distribution is optional (see further details below).
What comes with this resource:
- Teacher Guide
- Workstation task sheets (data & photo provided for the femur task)
- Workstation signs
- Answer sheet
- Missing person database
The activity involves 3 tasks:
★ The Tooth - Students will use a formula and measurements from the tooth to determine the age of the individual.
★ The Femur - Students will be given a sample dataset of human heights and femur lengths. They must produce a linear regression model relating femur length to height. Students will then have to measure the femur found at the site (photo provided) and use their regression model to predict height.
★ The Pelvis - Students will use a formula and measurements of the pelvis to determine sex. There is the option to replace this task with one that uses z-scores and the normal distribution. Two worksheets for the pelvis are therefore provided but only one worksheet is needed for the activity.

Learn to Tell the Time - Dyslexia Dyscalculia Friendly
The Aramazu method of learning to tell the time on an analogue clock was originally developed for primary school children. This collection of resources adapts the Aramazu approach to appeal to secondary school students. I have used this approach successfully to teach 16-18 year old students with dyslexia and dyscalculia how to tell the time.
The resources included in this package are:
A Student Progress Tracker
I glue this in my student’s books. The tracker shows 8 levels that the students have to move up in order to reach the target. Students start at the bottom (level 1) and once each level is completed, we highlight it. The goal is to reach level 8. The progress path is shown both in words and pictures so all my students can access the information.
An Illustrated Set of Notes
These can be used as a interactive teaching resource or as handouts for students.
Flash Cards / Match Pairs Cards
The Aramazu clocks can be used as flash cards or together with the word cards as a matching activity.
A Giant Aramazu Wall Clock
Perfect for kinaesthetic and visual learners, a printable giant Aramazu wall clock for students to practise showing the time on.
I’ve also included a few worksheets and posters to support learning.
The end goal is for students to be able to tell the time to 5 minute intervals on an Aramazu clock. Once students have mastered this, you can then use the ‘Goodbye Aramazu’ resource to support students with the transition to reading a ‘typical’ analogue clock:
