In each set there are 6 sheets of 6 puzzles. Each pupil could have a sheet each or they could be cut into individual puzzles or strips with 2 or 3 puzzles on each strip.

This is a set of 3 double-sided worksheets (with answers) where the student has to connect colours in a grid without them crossing. All the squares in the grid have to be used. They then, if required to, add the numbers along each the paths to come up with a total. Some of the totals are given so they can work backwards to find the correct route. (especially so as some of the puzzles can be connected in a different way - which can be an extension task they can be given). These can, however, be given as a task without the addition element. I have found the addition element quite good as different way of counting and using number bonds/patterns as an aid. Eg. if they see six 3’s along a path they can be encouraged to say 18 rather than count 3,6,9 etc eg. if they see a 1,2,3,4 say 10 without adding 1+2+3+4 etc etc

9 Puzzles - with answers. I made these just for fun- related to the 50th Anniversary of the Moon Landings.

SEARCH-FIND-COUNT INSECTS(1) - COUNTING + ADDITION + NUMBER BONDS + ANSWERS + CLIPART Count the 11 different insects in the picture 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 insects I have drawn as individual clip-art so that you could use them for you own PowerPoints, Notebook files etc If it a popular/useful resource, I may make a series with different topics/themes. Please let me know what you think!

EXAM TYPE QUESTIONS + WORKING + ANSWERS 23 EXAM type questions on SIMILARITY (shapes and solids) WORKING and ANSWERS included. Each question/answer provided as clip-art so can be used in PowerPoints and Notebook files etc In solutions - Scale factor found by dividing largest value by smallest to produce a SF > 1 and then deciding whether to multiply OR divide by this value. I know not every one takes this approach. ALSO NOTE Assets 6 and 16 look like they are the same question but there is a subtle difference.

3 levels of difficultly with increasing difficulty within each level. Full set of answers. All the puzzles have been provided as individual pieces of clip-art so you can use in your own PowerPoint and Notebook files etc. I have also included LARGE grids and PIPE PIECES that can be cut out so that students can ‘BUILD’ their solutions. If this resource proves popular I will make up some more puzzles and add them to the upload. Just let me know!

Full set of working + ANSWERS. In the zip files there are the unnumbered CLIPART PDF versions of all the questions and answers so that you can insert them in your own PowerPoints, Worksheets and or Notebook files etc. Should scale up without loss of quality. I hope colleagues and students find these useful. I have double, no quadruple checked these worksheets and was still finding the odd ‘rogue’ letter or number that was in error. I believe they should be ‘good to go’ now but please accept my apologies if I have missed correcting any small mistakes.
