IT also converts given number to the VIGESIMAL (base 20) system i.e. 0=0, 1=1, 2=2, …, 9=9, 10= A, 11=B, … , 19=J. Using different number bases is alway a great lesson to get the students to think about place value and how that works. It is also an excellent way to practice multiplication, division, addition and subtraction as well as some logical thinking. It is also me looking back to the day when you had to do calculate in £, /- , d. and st, lb and oz etc. A PROBABLE USE IS TO GIVE THE STUDENTS A NUMBER TO CONVERT and USE THIS TO CHECK ANSWERS OR USE IT AS A Q&A session/lesson on Converting backwards and forwards between different bases. I have other MAYAN resources including information/worksheets sheets. It should work on any computer as it doesn’t have any macros etc but I made it on EXCEL for the MAC. I think it is best when the screen is zoomed in so that you can only see the main area surrounded by the brown box.

This set of resources can be given as either 4 separate worksheets or cut into strips as 13 individual questions perhaps as a starter activity. JPEG files included in case you want to use the in your own PowerPoint or Notebook files etc The GOOD STARTING point is knowing that each dice has a total of 21 spots and calculate the GRAND TOTAL (bottom right) = number of dice in the box x 21 OR While the multiplication may be useful it can also be done entirely with addition and subtraction. The dice boxes have 4, 6, 12, 15 or 35 dice in them. It could also be a calculator activity. It is a good discussion point on where to start when filling in the grid. A lot of pupils will automatically start count the spots on the different coloured dice. However I found that ‘worked backwards’ were a lot more successful. Checking that the column and row totals all ‘work’ is an essential part of this task. I would appreciate any comments or feedback you could give via reviews. I am currently in the process of uploading several DICE related resources which are available now or will be available in the near future.

185 DIAGRAMS for use in your own worksheets. PowerPoints, Notebook slides etc. Supplied in PNG and PDF formats. Just place/insert them into your document and add some values. (in the zip file) Choose the diagram from either of the 2 reference guides. Rotate into different positions to get even more variations. Be aware that some of these diagrams with need TRIG/PYTHAG to complete. Knowledge of how to find the area of a polygon use the formula that includes finding the APOTHEM will help.

Multiplication tables that I have printed back-to-back and laminated. One side have X ? ( eg 1x2, 2x2, …10 x2) tables and the other the associated ?X tables( eg 2x1, 2x2…2x10) My daughter asked me to do these for our 3years 7month old grandson who has developed a particular interest in Maths and particularly number. He has used them on virtually a daily basis and even at his young age, knows most of his multiplication tables off by heart, which is amazing.

An EXCEL workbook which enables the user to convert a number to words. Works up to 999,999,999,999 and is a single ‘formula’ in a single excel cell The workbook has 3 tabs; A single number conversion A multi number conversion A random number generator (between 2 numbers set by the user) and converts the generated number to words All three versions AUTOFILL can be used to generate more rows. I am going to try to create some CONVERTING NUMBERS to WORD worksheets when I get the time by copying and pasting a set of cells into InDesign, Word Publisher, Powerpoint etc.

Did you every want that odd sheet of Specialist paper for a lesson and couldn’t find any? AND did you want/need any A3 size so you didn’t have to stick A4 sheets together? IN this collection you will find Black, Green, Blue, Red and Grey versions of the follow papers A4 and A3 GRAPH PAPER 2mm (grid line every 10 - major grid line every 20) 2mm ( major grid line every 10) 1mm (grid line every 10 - major grid line every 20) 1mm ( major grid line every 10) SQUARED 1cm 5mm 2mm 1mm ISOMETRIC 5mm 1cm 2cm SPOTTY 5mm (1pt spots) 1cm Triangluar (1pt spots) 1cm Triangluar (2pt spots) 2cm Triangluar (1pt spots) 2cm Triangluar (2pt spots) 1cm Squared (1pt spots) 1cm Squared (1pt spots) All are PDF files and sometime when viewing you might need to either zoom in or out to see the detail If printing the A3 version you will need to make sure it is sent to an A3 printer otherwise it will try to tile and you’ll end up with 4 sheets instead of 1. Any of the colour versions will print grey if printed in greyscale in various shades of grey depending on the colour. I have included a grey version that should print 50% black. IF there are any other PAPERS you want adding to this collection please make a comment and i’ll endeavour to add it to the collect as soon as possible. I hope there are useful!

PLEASE TRY THE FREE VERSION FIRST A fun way to learn the prime numbers less than 100 A set of 25 pixel picture puzzles Shade the squares that have prime numbers Identify Prime and Composite (non-prime) numbers 3 levels of difficulty Worksheets (A5/A4) + ANSWERS + blank grids Guidance/Instructions** Prior Knowledge Required Being able to identify some if not all the prime numbers less than 100 unless you use this as an activity for this purpose. This is an activity designed to make the learning of PRIME numbers much easier and I have been surprised, in the past, how successful it has been. Start with the PRACTICE question if needed. For this and ONE STAR PUZZLES the if you work through the grid, starting in the top left hand corner and work left to right and row by row the sequence of PRIME NUMBERS <100 appear IN ORDER. So find 2 and work through to 97 The sequence repeats (partially in some cases) up to the prime needed complete the puzzle Get them to do this methodically - this is how they pick up the sequence ( a printed sequence for them to have alongside may scaffold the initial process). TWO STAR - Same rules but generally a larger grid THREE STAR - Usually a larger grid but primes not in a particular order although some part of the prime sequence may occur. (Find a 2 and it may be next to a 3, then a 5, then a 7 etc etc) I have provided some blank grids for pupils to make up their own puzzles. Draw a picture by colouring in a small grid. Then working with a larger grid get them to write LIGHTLY SHADE their picture onto a big grid In each shaded square they then write a PRIME NUMBER (in sequence at first as in a one star puzzle) which gets them writing out the primes) FILL IN THE REST OF THE GRID WITH NON-PRIME which is an equally IMPORTANT TASK EITHER COPY THIS ONTO ANOTHER BLANK GRID or use COMPUTER and TABLE IN WORD, POWERPOINT or similar to produce a printable puzzle. I have used ADOBE’s InDesign to make this set of puzzles Please Comment/follow so if there are upgrades/changes you can be easily notified - Thank You
