You can simulate the throwing of up to 3 dice on a whiteboard for classroom activities. You will need Adobe Flash Player installed on you computer. (they usually do have it installed as standard) Now 2 files that basically do the same thing (the update file has an slightly different menu system) Please check out my other upload that simulates dice throwing and so you can look at expected outcomes and experimental outcomes.

Use to improve students identification of 2d shapes and info about them. This resource is best used on an interactive whiteboard. You will need Adobe Flash Player on your computer (most have it installed as standard) The activity is to Drag a shape into it’s appropriate position. If it is correct it snaps into place. If it’s incorrect it will return to the top. If you click the ? next to each box it gives info about that shape (click the ? again to make it close before proceeding) I have other resources similar to this for 3d shapes and matching formulas to shapes.

It is an Adobe Flash file but even if you don’t have this installed it works in Internet Explorer (Right click and open with IE) It is a 2 player game that I have used as a starter (mainly around November 5th in the UK) OR EVEN BASED an ENTIRE LESSON AROUND IT I give the pupils the choice of going first or second. Either me Vs 1 pupil or me Vs the class As I know the strategy that you have to get to 3,9 or 15 first to make sure you it doesn’t matter who goes first as I usually win and it makes them more eager to have another go. It really gets the pupils fired up and after a few games someone might notice what the strategy is or rather part of it. They’ll probably notice first that you alwasy get to 15 first so get them to explain why. (it’s usually “…well if we add 1 you’ll add 5 or if we add 4 you’ll add 2…” etc Get them to think about what they have just said 1+5,2+4 …so its something to do with 6 15 is 6 less than 21 … perhaps you can use this knowledge to make sure you get to 15 first etc etc I have gone on to get them to investigate other target numbers eg 47 find the first number you need to get to 47 /6 is 7 remainder 5 so you need to go first and say 5 if the next player adds 2 you need to add 4 (2+4=6) What would happen if you could place up to 10 barrels and target number was 100?

If you download please comment/follow so if the resource is updated I will be able to notify you. this resource is PART OF a SET that I have split into single items SEE MY OTHER DOMINO RELATED RESOURCES INCLUDED a set of dominoes with the MULTIPLICATION Symbol FOR PRINTABLE SETS OF DOMINOES with ADDITION, SUBTRACTION symbols on the dominoes or just PLAIN - SEE MY OTHER UPLOADS There is a worksheet for INEQUALITES ( <,> and =) for NUMBER WORK 0-0 to 12-12 approx (5cm x 10cm at 100%) I printed these on CARD and laminated them, other sets were printed on different coloured card Remember to just print Page 1 or yo will print the example/instructions on page 2

I have used this with all year groups / all abilities as both a starter activity and a lesson resource when covering this topic. It can be used by student or staff on a computer by hovering/rolling/clicking a specific number They can come to the interactive whiteboard and touch one of the numbers to give them the prime factor/index notation for that number. It can be used to check sets of questions from worksheets or as part of a prime factor bingo game. It needs Adobe Flash Player installed on the computer it is being used on. ( Most computers do have this) If anyone can think of other uses please make a comment. *** Apologies to the first few people who downloaded this resource as I mistakenly uploaded the incorrect version- should be OK now) There was a problem with 34 and 78

I think this will be a very challenging but useful activity Answers included or should that be nswrs ncldd. A great activity at any time of the year to keep mathematical language /words in the for front of their thoughts. perhaps try to complete it over the Christmas Holidays It could be set as a competition -individual/small group/ table Each pupil could be given a different set of questions. A table could be given all 10 sheets or all the same sheet and work collaboratively Lots of possible variations Please lets me know how it goes.

If you use/download this resource PLEASE Comment/Follow so I can keep in touch if I update it or improve it. I have produced a Prime Factor Banner/Poster ** that can also be used along side this activity as well as a PRIME FACTOR FINDER PROGRAM that can be used for the answers on the whiteboard* FOR USE WITH PRIME FACTORS. CONTENTS: A SET OF CARDS WITH NUMBERS 2-100 Aprrox 4.5cm x 4.5 cm each All composite (non-primes) are in square boxes Primes are in circles A SET OF ALL THE PRIME NUMBER (VARIOUS QUANTITIES) A SET OF INDICES (in hexagons) Instructions Pick a number - students have to make that number just using the prime cards CAN BE USED CONSTRUCTING PRIME FACTOR TREES OR what works well if you put all the composite (non-prime cards in a bag) and then pick one out OR Use like a LUCKY DIP Walk around class and get individual pupils/tables to pick one(or more) out of the bag. PUPILS MAKE THEIR NUMBER(S) using their PRIME Number cards Multiplication and Power/indices cards can also be used.

This is really a use of HIGHEST COMMON FACTOR to find the DIMENSIONS and hence the VOLUME of a cuboid given the area of each face. A very good KNOWLEDGE of finding the HCF, I would say, is essential. The higher numbered worksheets are very challenging otherwise. 15 worksheets each with 6 questions 2-1 to 2-15 You could cut them into single questions to be easily stuck into books. so working out could be shown. Each student could be given question within their ability range. Each pupil with a different question perhaps. Cut-up single questions could be mixed up but in a bag/envelope and used as a luck dip type situation
