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!

A follow on from my ‘SETS A ,B, C and D’ resources where students have to use Pythagoras’ Theorem to find the missing side near the top of a 'Pythagorean STACK’
4 worksheets + ANSWERS given are FULL CALC. - Rounded to 1.d.p - and SURD form.
See other my FREE resources in this set
PLEASE COMMENT/FOLLOW so if there are any more associated uploads/upgrades I can let you know*
File include One in FULL COLOUR and one on white background at two different sizes
Also included - sticking the printed tiles together advice/instructions
BANNER Approx w 2.7m x h 0.3m POSTER Approx w 1.4m x h 0.65m
Best results printed on Laser printer (designed to tile A4 PORTRAIT or A3 Landscape Sheets)
Suggest set page over lap to 2.5 cm/1in and set crop marks
Will print all tiles from the PDF to Inkjet printer with appropriate settings
Most printers leave a white border around the edge. I printed a colour version, stuck it together and cut the white edge off (but that’s a personal preference)
Please follow/comment so that you’ll get notified of any upgrades or amendments.
I can send you a version with your school logo or department if required ,on request. (Free)
I have also included **A PRIME FACTOR FINDER PROGRAM **to use on WHITE BOARDS
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.
ALSO AVAILABLE A FACTORS POSTER/BANNER (FREE)- see my other uploads
A follow on from my ‘SET A’ worksheet where students have to use Pythagoras’ Theorem to find the missing side in a right-angled triangle give two of the sides.
Separate worksheets or one double-sided. 11 questions with Some scaffolding + ANSWERS
See other my FREE resources in this set.
SET B - Slightly more difficult version of Reading Scales SET A
Uses 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12, and 20 divisions
With CLIP-ART to create your own blank worksheets/PowerPoints etc
BOTH set A and set B have 32 questions + answers
Set A - Colour blank fraction diagram to show given fraction
Set B - State fraction in given fraction diagram
I have also included over 700 + pieces of clip-art.
Images for every fraction up to 20th’s to use in your own worksheets or Powerpoint’s etc
I started with the idea to make every possible variation you could have without reflection or rotational copies and it proved quite a challenge. After get to the 12th’s and making 183 diagrams and with thinking the 13th’s would have even more a just did a few variations for those up to 20th’s.
I hope what I have done will be of use to some one.
SETS A and B are part of a larger collection of fraction resources
POLYGONS - INTERIOR and EXTERIOR ANGLES INFORMATION POSTER
PDF’s ready to print at A4, A3 and A2 sizes (although the latter will need to be printed as tiles and stuck together)
PRINTING and TILING ADVICE INCLUDED
Also included.
The poster and all the individual artwork use in this resource as high quality PNG and PDF files.'s
This will enable you to print almost any size (use the PDF on really big sizes as you should not get any pixelation at all)
USE with PowerPoints, Notebook files etc
32 questions across 4 worksheets +ANSWERS
Given INTEGER values of a, b and c construct a magic square using by substituting them into the expressions on the template.
By collecting like terms an expression could be found for the magic number
Either answer worksheet can be reversed into a question worksheet where the students have to work out a,b and c
There are 4 worksheets in this set so that each student on a ‘table’ or seated near each other could have a different set of questions
FIND AREA 72 questions, over 4 worksheets with increasing difficulty
**FIND MISSING SIDE(given area) ** 72 questions, over 4 worksheets with increasing difficulty
Follow-up worksheets for surface area of a cuboid , and volume of cuboid to be uploaded shortly
Practice reading scales and identifying the value of each division on the scale. (all diagrams have 10 divisions in set A
Watch out for Set B which will have scales with a varying number of divisions
Work through Maze
Tally each symbol
Complete table
Use clues to deduce which elf used which symbol
Reasoning will need knowledge of:
basic inequalities
prime numbers
square numbers
cube numbers
The title is Magic Squares of Squares but this is really another way to look at substituting values into expressions, multiplying out double brackets and collecting like terms together before solving a quadratic equation. Also deciding, in some cases, if both values or just one of the values found from solving the quadratic are valid.
Just something, I hope that is a bit different from the usual.
ANSWERS included

Solve by logic/reasoning or trial and improvement OR USE ALGEBRA
use as a worksheet or cut into strips or individual puzzles so each student gets a different question(s)
DIFFERENTIATE by giving students some of the numbers - see answers
Otherwise these are quite challenging.
A starting point could be giving out a blank grid and supplying the numbers and get student to fill in the numbers in the circles before trying to solve these puzzles.
Use the clip-art on your own worksheets or PowerPoints etc by overlaying text boxes. Use the questions/answers for the numbers.
I was only going to do 100 questions but ended up doing 1504 (94pages x 16puzzle per page) just to see if I could ,so sorry for the overkill!
