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!

500 lesson starters (probably 5 to 10 mins)
Answers on PowerPoint by clicking anywhere on screen to reveal. (Answers also on a separate PDF)
I have included PDF and WORD version of all the starters 1-200 (might be useful especially if your Whiteboard stops working)
Working in millilitres and litres and converting between each
a) colour amount given
b) state amount in jug
Use clip-art to create your own worksheets/PowerPoints - they are transparent PDFs so it is easy to draw a coloured rectangle behind to show liquid in jug
Step-by-step instructions (PowerPoint) on how to use factor trees to decompose a number into a product of primes.
This can be left on a loop while the class are working.
A further menu driven PowerPoint that has ALL the solutions for each number (minus a few variations)
No worksheets. I just get the pupils to ‘shout out’ several numbers between 2 and 100 and write these on the board.
(although I sometimes add a few myself)
Class marks their own work from solutions PowerPoint
Includes 2 worksheets for all the students to write their answers on.
I WOULD SUPPLY PLENTY OF SCRAP PAPER
I have included a menu driven PowerPoint with an answer for each number (0-100).
Including every possible answer for each number would probably be impossible.
I have only had a few students get anywhere near completing the worksheet.
It has worked well when a table of students have collaborated on the task.
The most important learning objective, for me is that once they get an answer for a number that they use it to generate other answers in a somewhat methodical fashion.
eg say they stated with 4!+4+4+4=36
go on to 4!+4+4-4=28, 4!+4-4-4=20, 4!-4-4-4=12 4!+4+(4-4)=29 4!+4+(4x4)=44 4!+(4x4x4)=88 etc etc
A GOOD ACTIVITY FOR on or near STAR WARS DAY (May the 4th)
A 2 page worksheet that involves using ALGEBRA
Handout and PowerPoint to show use of Pascal’s Triangle.
Some knowledge of algebra (simple addition, collecting terms) a prerequisite.
I suggest letting students try the worksheet before mentioning Pascal’s Triangle and they should notice the link.

Notes: On worksheets 1-3 i have set the sector as part of a circle shown as a dotted line to remind students that a sector is a fraction of a circle.
There may also be some discussion over rounding everything to 1d.p. as in some questions it is probably not suitable.
