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!

MONSTER MATHS 3 - LOGIC/REASONING PUZZLE - USE COMPASS POINTS/DIRECTIONS and CLUES - Halloween

MONSTER MATHS 3 - LOGIC/REASONING PUZZLE - USE COMPASS POINTS/DIRECTIONS and CLUES - Halloween

(1)
A single worksheet that involves using the cardinal and inter-cardinal points/directions to solve a logic puzzle. It also involved reading the clues, matching this description up to a monster and associated letter which could be very challenging! Complete the worksheet OR print off the separate STUDENT ANSWER GRID and CHECKLIST and save the ORIGINAL worksheet for another time which saves on printing costs. I have not tried this with students myself yet so if you do use it I would love to know how it went.

(if I get the time) *** APOLOGIES TO THE FIRST FEW PEOPLE WHO DOWNLOADED THIS RESOURCE as I FOUND A MISTAKE ON Q2 but It was downloaded by some before I had the chance to rectify it. (I rectified this by putting a ‘1+’ before the last clue on Q2 on each of the files) THE CURRENT VERSION SHOULD BE OK

FACTOR TREES / PRIME FACTOR TREES - 2 PowerPoints (Lesson intro. + Solutions for all numbers 2-100)

(3)
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

The 4 FOUR's PUZZLE (0-100) BIDMAS / BODMAS- Worksheet(s) + Answers on a POWERPOINT

(3)
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)
