I have been teaching MATHEMATICS (11-16) since 1990. I have regularly been commended on my classroom displays and the quality of my resources as I feel this enriches the student experience.
As a self-taught graphic designer I now produce professional quality materials for our academy/academy chain across all departments including posters/banners and promotional materials. I am currently working on updating some older resources as well as developing new ones!

10 CHRISTMAS themed SPOT THE DIFFERENCE PUZZLES
10 DIFFERENCES to find on each puzzle
A colleague I made them for is intending to LAMINATE the print version of the puzzles so the pupils can use a dry wipe pen on them and they can be reused.
The POWERPOINT could be used as a class activity where all the pupils are trying to spot the differences on a puzzle on the interactive whiteboard.
All the separate elements of this resource are included as png files.
All the separate puzzles are included as JPG files
SOME OF THESE PUZZLES MAY BE MORE CHALLENGING THAN YOU THINK!
A good exercise in observation skills?
A poster for your classroom depicting all the animals, their Chinese symbols and different years associated with the Chinese New Year.
There are 3 PDF files for printing A4,A3 and A2 sizes
Print each size with appropriate settings. If you only can print in A4 you will have to “TILE” the A3 and A2 and instructions for doing this are included.
I have also included the high quality PNG file to use in your own documents or PowerPoints etc.
SEARCH-FIND-COUNT FARM ANIMALS
USE INCLUDED POWERPOINT for WHOLE CLASS INVOLVEMENT
WORKSHEET AND ANSWERS CAN BE PRINTED VIA POWERPOINT
I have not tried this as I am a secondary teacher but I was trying to come up with an idea for a primary college that would make counting ‘more interesting’ .
I thought that the main image may be laminated to allow pupils to use a whiteboard marker to cross off/ circle the ones they have found.
A tally chart(s) also could be used.
I have included all the ARTWORK I have drawn as individual clip-art so that you could use them to create your own PowerPoints, Notebook files etc

SEARCH - FIND - COUNT. ** At The Beach**
There are 3 of each animal in the grid (one animal there is 4) to find.
With answers and graphics to use in your own documents and PowerPoints etc.
ALSO see my CHINESE NEW YEAR POSTER resource!
A PELMANISM GAME with 18 Christmas themed images.
The set I have made includes 4 of each image. So 72 cards in total.
These can be set out in various configurations
2x36, 3x24, 4x18, 6x12, 8x9 for game play
However you will need at least 2 copies of each image you use to make smaller sets
PRINTING
I have printed them back-to-back on 300gsm A4 card. (but paper will do if you are going to stick them on something else to act as a card back) So you have 9 cards on one side and the card backs on the other. Check your printer settings. Print one side, put the sheet back in the printer the opposite way around and print the card back page.
CUTTING OUT
I cut them out from the image side, a fraction inside the image design. In this way you should get an even border on the card back side if they have lined up correctly.
I have also use a craft corner cutter 4mm , to round off the card corners and put them in plastic cards sleeves to help preserve them and a box to put them in.
