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!

Use mathematical skills including LOGIC and REASONING to complete the 4X4 magic squares with the given numbers.
15 questions over 5 worksheets.
On each worksheet 1-5 covers the last 15 Kings and Queens.
All the magic squares are set out in the same format which students should be encouraged to find this pattern.
The first box on the top row is the day so can only be between 1-31
The second box is a month so can only be between 1-12
The third is the century so can only be 16,17,18 or 19 (QE II is the only one born in the 20th century so is 19)
etc etc
On each worksheeet the King or Queen is and earlier date as you go down the questions.
Use in a project on the MAYA eg wall display
OR a starting point for working in base 20
In this resource there is:
An A3 sized poster
An A2 sized poster (will need to be tiled - using a reasonable overlap setting will be a good idea)
20 x A5 sized individulal numbers for dislpay with A4 description KEY
A set of playing card sized cards that has
-the decimal number
-the Mayan symbol for that number
-the Mayan head GLYPH for that number
-and its name (good luck pronouncing them)
PLUS
All the artwork that I created for this resource so you can use it with your own projects (see zip file)
I have included 300 dpi JPEGs and PNG’s but where you can use the PDF version as it can scale without pixelating. (in WORD you have to use INSET > Object)
If you do use any of my artwork, please credit it when appropriate.
I also have a set of resources showing how to convert Mayan, base 20 numbers into decimal number
I WILL BE UPLOADING SOME MORE MATHS RELATED MAYAN RESOURCES AVAILABLE SOON
