**If you download and use this Free resource could you please comment/follow so I can use the information to develop addition resources ** A PDF file that had Ladybird Dominoes from 0-0 to 10-10 (66 dominoes over 11 pages) Normal set of dominoes 0-0 to 6-6 just print off pages 1 to 5 A very good activity for learning practicing number bonds to 10 (see image) or just used to play normal dominoes. Other possible ideas are outlined in the PDF. I have printed off a few sets on card and laminated them and are a big hit with the students Each domino is 6cmx12cm at 100% size (print off at lower % if smaller size is required)

How many time do other gear(s) turn when the initial gear turns and which direction do they turn? Next level up from GEARS 2A - this time the direction of turn is required and some turns expressed as fractions. Hopefully student will be starting to get the idea that it is only the FIRST and LAST gears that need to be considered in calculations as intermediate/inbetween gears do not make any difference. 2 worksheets 10 questions Gear clip-art and question images are included for use in your other documents.

2 Spot the difference puzzles for Red Nose Day has 10 differences has 15 difference These are reasonably challenging.

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?

I have only used this in an after-school club. The students appeared to like the challenge of drawing the best picture. To use it Adobe Flash Player will need to be installed on the computer (most have it automatically installed) and may work if opened in Internet Explorer Simple to use - Arrow Keys Change colour ,speed and size of pen by clicking with mouse. HARD to get a good picture ( as I suppose an Etch-A-Sketch is). It anyone wants to save and print one they’ve done you’ll have to ‘screen-shot’ it. ( but then you couldn’t keep an Etch-A-Sketch picture) Please comment if you find a use for it

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 BASED ON THE KEY STAGE 3 GENERAL SPELLING LIST 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.

75 questions over 5 worksheets wth ANSWERS

3 worksheets - 24 questions. Complete the fraction diagrams and equations. The diagrams give scaffolding to working with equivalent fractions. I had also added the 700+ fraction diagrams I have created to make my fractions resources. for use in staff worksheets/ PowerPoints etc

I have also provided these as unnumbered CLIP-ART(PDF) to use in you own WORKSHEETS, POWERPOINTS or NOTEBOOK files etc. Each questions comes with its own working/answers also as clipart linked by file name e.g. ASSET 1 / ASSET 1 ANS etc The questions vary in difficulty and include 2D and 3D examples and in some will need other skills such as circumference of a circle etc. I hope they are useful

Find 2 of the angles in a triangle using their ratios given the third. Use the worksheets but I can see the CLIP-ART probably being more useful as all 144 questions are included as separate files that can be used in your own worksheets/Powerpoints/Whiteboard files.

Find the angles ion a straight line using algebraic information. Use the worksheets but I can see the CLIP-ART probably being more useful as all 108 questions are included as separate files that can be used in your own worksheets/Powerpoints/Whiteboard files.

SEARCH-FIND-COUNT INSECTS(1) - COUNTING + ADDITION + NUMBER BONDS + ANSWERS + CLIPART Count the 11 different insects in the picture 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 insects I have drawn as individual clip-art so that you could use them for you own PowerPoints, Notebook files etc If it a popular/useful resource, I may make a series with different topics/themes. Please let me know what you think!

CHEMICAL ELEMENTS - MISSING VOWELS QUIZZES 3 double-sided, missing vowel, quizzes based on the 118 chemical elements in the periodic table. Intended to be a FUN activity. Each one increases in difficulty so you will need to think about which one to present to the students. CAN BE USED TO TEST WHAT INFORMATION THEY CAN RECALL and perhaps does not even need to be fully completed. Have a contest to see which student or group of students can get the most in a set time. A list of chemical elements in atomic number order. ALL the vowels have been removed. A list of chemical elements, in atomic number order. ALL the vowels have been removed and the remaining consonants put in alphabetical order. A list of chemical elements. Initially ALL the vowels have been removed and all the consonants, put in alphabetical order. The results have then been listed in alphabetical order. Can you identify them all, along with their atomic number? SOLUTIONS INCLUDED
