CROSS NUMBERS PUZZLES
These puzzles are designed in the same way as a traditional crossword but using numbers instead of words. Each clue is a sum, and the result should be entered into the matching squares on the numbered grid. This file contains ten Cross Numbers puzzles together with a solution sheet. I have included two versions, one in PDF and the second an Excel file, whichever is your preference.

HOMOPHONES WORD-SEARCH
Like the earlier Homophones word spiral puzzles, all of the words used in these ten word-search puzzles are commonly misspelt or confused with other similar-sounding words. There is a printable sheet for the pupils and a solution sheet highlighting the fourteen words in each puzzle for the teacher. To make the words easier to locate on the solution sheet I have highlighted the first letter of each word in yellow, or orange when the letter begins two or more words running in different directions. I have included two versions, one in PDF and the second an Excel file, whichever is your preference.

I have taken a selection of those annoying words which have not only caused us all at some stage to hesitate before putting pen to paper, but also usually manage to escape the automatic spell-check!

IMPERIAL & METRIC CONVERSION TABLE
I have no idea if this will be of any use to anyone in the community but I have enjoyed putting it together so it has not really been a total waste of time!

I have also included printable sheets of conversion tables for inches to centimetres, feet to metres, kilometres to miles etc. If you wish to take advantage of the automatic converter you will need to use the spreadsheet but the PDF version may be used for print-outs if you prefer this format. I have now added as requested an additional file with printable sheets converting part inches to cm & mm.
