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!

ANOTHER comprehensive set of blank templates(40+) for you to use in your own documents, Powerpoints and Notebook slides etc. Only a few examples are shown the the image gallery above. You can import a template and resize it to what is required , either a large version or multiples per sheet (if you use the PDF version you can do this in the print settings automatically)
These include.
A set of grids and examples for creating a curve-stitched ALPHABET
A set using cube/rhombus patterns and more
On some of the more complicated patterns images of how to get started and steps along the way are provided
Let the students investigate different patterns they can make by joining spots up in different ways ( see investigation results graphic)
This is a follow up resource to my original curve stitching resource which is also FREE to download.
Find over 600 characters from the plays by William Shakespeare across 7 puzzles and 8575 letters.
ANSWERS INCLUDED.
GOOD LUCK!
I have done my best to check these sheets. I know there are a few characters in the puzzles that are not included in the word lists but ALL the characters from the word lists SHOULD be in the puzzles.
If you download please comment/follow so if the resource is updated I will be able to notify you.
this resource is PART OF a SET that I have split into single items SEE MY OTHER DOMINO RELATED RESOURCES

or just PLAIN - SEE MY OTHER UPLOADS
There is a worksheet for INEQUALITES ( <,> and =)
for NUMBER WORK 0-0 to 12-12 approx (5cm x 10cm at 100%)
I printed these on CARD and laminated them, other sets were printed on different coloured card
Remember to just print Page 1 or yo will print the example/instructions on page 2
This resource has a selection of posters showing the value of PI to a various number of decimal places.
The two distinctly different posters show the first 1000 and 10000 decimal places of PI respectivly (the latter having 3 colour variations and either A4 or A3 in size)
The banner shows the first 100 decimal places and can be either approx 3.5m or 7m dependent on how its stuck together (tiled).
This can be Pi, UP TO , 100 dp if you only print off as many sheets as you want.
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A PART FINISHED RESOURCE - but still usable
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
This resource is intended to give students an opportunity to experience a different counting system. They should be familiar with the decimal system and may have some knowledge of perhaps, binary.
The Mayan’s used base 20 (vigesimal) in their counting system with associated digits ( being made up of a shell shape, a dot and a bar/line)
from 0 -19 rather than our 0-9.
It really is an exercise in practicing MULTIPLICATION and ADDITION in a different format and a touch of logical thinking.
I also have another resource that includes posters and other display items to go with this topic. It also includes a lot of artwork I have produced and used in my Mayan resources that you could use in your own resources if required.
SEARCH-FIND-COUNT FARM ANIMALS
USE INCLUDED POWERPOINT for WHOLE CLASS INVOLVEMENT
WORKSHEET AND ANSWERS CAN BE PRINTED VIA POWERPOINT
I have not tried this as I am a secondary teacher but I was trying to come up with an idea for a primary college that would make counting ‘more interesting’ .
I thought that the main image may be laminated to allow pupils to use a whiteboard marker to cross off/ circle the ones they have found.
A tally chart(s) also could be used.
I have included all the ARTWORK I have drawn as individual clip-art so that you could use them to create your own PowerPoints, Notebook files etc
ALSO SEE
SEARCH - FIND - COUNT. ** At The Beach**
There are 3 of each animal in the grid (one animal there is 4) to find.
With answers and graphics to use in your own documents and PowerPoints etc.
ALSO see my CHINESE NEW YEAR POSTER resource!
The numbers are written with standard index form/scientific notation
to make them easier to read and understand.
While trillion is an incredibly large number, and the one that is the highest that some people will know about, there are actually many numbers that are larger than it.
This poster shows names from Thousand to Googol and a few extra of note.
A4, A3 and A2 sizes with tiling instructions included
and a High Quality PNG file in case you want to use it to produce an even large poster of in your own PowerPoint/Notebook files
A4 BLACK WHITE VERSION ALSO INCLUDED

A poster for your classroom depicting all the animals, their Chinese symbols and different years associated with the Chinese New Year.
There are 3 PDF files for printing A4,A3 and A2 sizes
Print each size with appropriate settings. If you only can print in A4 you will have to “TILE” the A3 and A2 and instructions for doing this are included.
I have also included the high quality PNG file to use in your own documents or PowerPoints etc.

Shade the squares that have 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

A PELMANISM GAME with 18 Christmas themed images.
The set I have made includes 4 of each image. So 72 cards in total.
These can be set out in various configurations
2x36, 3x24, 4x18, 6x12, 8x9 for game play
However you will need at least 2 copies of each image you use to make smaller sets
PRINTING
I have printed them back-to-back on 300gsm A4 card. (but paper will do if you are going to stick them on something else to act as a card back) So you have 9 cards on one side and the card backs on the other. Check your printer settings. Print one side, put the sheet back in the printer the opposite way around and print the card back page.
CUTTING OUT
I cut them out from the image side, a fraction inside the image design. In this way you should get an even border on the card back side if they have lined up correctly.
I have also use a craft corner cutter 4mm , to round off the card corners and put them in plastic cards sleeves to help preserve them and a box to put them in.
