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!

WORKSHEETS and ANSWERS PROVIDED
PRIME NUMBERS LESS THAN 100 - Via PRIME PIXEL PICTURES (set of 25) + more NOW AVAILABLE
well a mixture of ideas to throw out there
Basically you have a grid of numbers in this case between 1-100
Pupils identify and colour/shade in the prime numbers to produce a PIXEL PICTURE
This resource is just an basic example where the primes come in order so they get to know the sequence
Others
are on bigger grids
Different colours by condition set
Prime mixed up
I have found it surprisingly successful in getting the pupils to learn their prime numbers
Also in this resource I have included a bit mash-up of various other areas of maths that could be brought in - PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK
PLEASE TRY THE FREE VERSION FIRST
A fun way to learn the prime numbers less than 100
A set of 25 pixel picture puzzles
Shade the squares that have prime numbers
Identify Prime and Composite (non-prime) numbers
3 levels of difficulty
Worksheets (A5/A4) + ANSWERS + blank grids
Guidance/Instructions**
Prior Knowledge Required
Being able to identify some if not all the prime numbers less than 100
unless you use this as an activity for this purpose.
This is an activity designed to make the learning of PRIME numbers much easier and I have been surprised, in the past, how successful it has been.
Start with the PRACTICE question if needed.
For this and
ONE STAR PUZZLES the if you work through the grid,
starting in the top left hand corner and work left to right and row by row the sequence of PRIME NUMBERS <100 appear IN ORDER.
So find 2 and work through to 97
The sequence repeats (partially in some cases) up to the prime needed complete the puzzle
Get them to do this methodically - this is how they pick up the sequence ( a printed sequence for them to have alongside may scaffold the initial process).
TWO STAR - Same rules but generally a larger grid
THREE STAR - Usually a larger grid but primes not in a particular
order although some part of the prime sequence may
occur. (Find a 2 and it may be next to a 3, then a 5,
then a 7 etc etc)
I have provided some blank grids for pupils to make up their own puzzles.
Draw a picture by colouring in a small grid.
Then working with a larger grid get them to write LIGHTLY SHADE their picture onto a big grid
In each shaded square they then write a PRIME NUMBER (in sequence at first as in a one star puzzle) which gets them writing out the primes)
FILL IN THE REST OF THE GRID WITH NON-PRIME which is an equally IMPORTANT TASK
EITHER COPY THIS ONTO ANOTHER BLANK GRID or use COMPUTER and TABLE IN WORD, POWERPOINT or similar to produce a printable puzzle.
I have used ADOBE’s InDesign to make this set of puzzles
Please Comment/follow so if there are upgrades/changes you can be easily notified - Thank You
Use as a worksheets or cut into strips
Blank worksheet included
Use the clip-art to create you own worksheet or PowerPoint etc
As well as an addition/subtraction version of this resource
there is a
A ‘MONSTER’ based version for addition/subtraction and also available along with associated CLIP-ART

WRITING NUMBERS IN WORDS - PowerPoint - Worksheets - Place Valve Tables and MORE
Choice of A2, A3 and A4 POSTERS (with tiling instructions)
Plus PDF & PNG’s to use in your own PowerPoints/Notebook files etc
A5 sized Spelling Aids (to stick in student books perhaps)
A5 Colour - Place value aids - up to hundreds of trillions
If you only want to go to, say, millions - CUT OFF the billions and trillions parts
For these I have laminated them and students write their numbers using a dry wipe pen in the boxes below.
PDF &PNG files supplied
An slightly different, but I hope interesting resource for simple addition and subtraction of numbers up to 20 using robots/number machines.
EXPLANATION POWERPOINT (24 slides)
Initially: 4 worksheets with answers
ALL the clip art I used to make the resource for you to use.
use the clip art to make your own worksheets or large scale robots for lessons or displays
Please note
This resource is the beginnings of an idea.
It is as uploaded and as yet UNTESTED with a class.
It has been designed to make basic calculations a bit more interesting and in some of the examples a little more challenging.
Please let me know what you think of this as an idea and if it is any good and thoughts on improving it.
Any questions please contact me.
I will make more associated resources if people think it will be worthwhile.
Please REVIEW if possible
I can be found on twitter @wardee72
A PowerPoint that cover the very basics to the more complex

Virtually Identical to my set of Ladybird Domino 0-0 to 10-10 resource but with Extra dominoes so that a full set of 0-0 to 12-12 would cover THE TWELVE DAYS of CHRISTMAS. So 91 Dominoes altogether.
Lots of opportunity to set differentiated tasks
IDEAS FOR USE ALSO IN PDF
You could even sing along to the domino you have or find ones that fit the song, as well as looking at all sorts of maths problems that could be weedled out of this topic.
How many birds in total?
How many men in total?
How many women in total?
Number patterns and sequences :
1 partridge on day one
1 partridge and 2 turtle doves on day 2
but thats 2 partridges and 2 turtle doves in total after 2 days …
and 5 partridges ,8 turtle doves, 9 french hens, 8 calling birds and 5 gold rings after 5 days etc etc etc
Perhaps could be used as a writing exercise in English.
OR Just use as normal dominoes
Hopefully a fun way to practice NUmber bonds to 20
Pupils could be tasked with discussing if each of the values are appropriate
I have included a BLANK SET of cards if they want to make their own version
Usual “Top Trump” type rules
You can simulate the throwing of up to 3 dice on a whiteboard for classroom activities.
You will need Adobe Flash Player installed on you computer. (they usually do have it installed as standard)
Now 2 files that basically do the same thing (the update file has an slightly different menu system)
Please check out my other upload that simulates dice throwing and so you can look at expected outcomes and experimental outcomes.

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 to keep mathematical language /words in the for front of their thoughts.
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.
FIND AREA 72 questions, over 4 worksheets with increasing difficulty

(Looks great laminated)
Play/rules involve using
SQUARE and PRIME numbers and much more
PUPILS can also record what type/colour of squares they land on and tally/graph them
I am sure there are other uses the game could be used for.
RED squares have SQUARE NUMBERS
GREEN squares have PRIME NUMBERS and have People on:child, young adult, old adult
BLUE squares have TRIANGLE NUMBERS
ORANGE squares have some ATOMIC NUMBERS
PURPLE squares have PERFECT NUMBERS
YELLOW squares have INTERNATIONAL DIRECT-DIAL CODES(country indicated by flag)
PINK have related to MISCELLANEOUS FACTS about that number (some maths some ‘fun’
**ADVANCED VERSION available as a separate DOWNLOAD

Rules for 2 different ways to play the game
Advanced 1 - Uses a SCORE CARD so the player can check off all the numbers they have landed on.
Each of these has a particular POINTS VALUE
BONUS points are awarded in certain conditions
THE POINTS TOTAL HAS THEN TO BE WORKED OUT
Advanced 2 - Uses a set of CARDS to COLLECT
(instead of the SCORE CARD)
Each of these cards have INFORMATION about that particular number and includes maths,science and fun facts
BONUS points are awarded in certain conditions
THE POINTS TOTAL HAS THEN TO BE WORKED OUT
BY COUNTING THE NUMBER OF POINTS ON EACH CARD
ALSO INCLUDED: GAME RULES, SCORE CARD, SET OF CARDS FOR EACH NUMBER (+BONUS CARDS)
SET OF A5 mini-posters for SQUARE,TRIANGLE,PRIME and PERFECT NUMBERS + ALL INDIVIDUAL CLIP-ART**
Work through Maze
Tally each symbol
