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.

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! The first sheet in the file gives you an automatic metric measurement of length converter, simply enter the figure you want to convert into the appropriate box and the converted figure will appear. 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.
