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!

If you download please comment/follow so if the resource is updated I will be able to notify you. SEE MY OTHER DOMINO RELATED RESOURCES 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

PENTOMINOES - The 5x4 GRID CHALLENGES - FIND ALL 50 SOLUTIONS (ROTATION-REFLECTION SYMMETRY)

(0)
A HIGHLY SCAFFOLDED ACTIVITY in which the students are guided to work in a methodical/systematic way to find the solutions. Each puzzle is based on a 5x4 rectangular grid that, in most cases, student only have to fit 3 unknown pentominoes in to the grid as one of them is shown in position. They should be familiar with checking for rotation and reflection symmetry as this is very important. THis includes: An instruction sheets. 9 Challenges across 8 Worksheets Blank Grids Full solutions in both Colour and B/W Solutions for each individual pentomino ALL the artwork I used to make this resource. Perhaps this could lead to some data analysis work. I have sets of PENTOMINOES, FREE to DOWNLOAD that match the colours used in this resource https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12501085

MATHS / PHYSICS GEARS 2(B). TURNING (RATIO)

How many time do other gear(s) turn when the initial gear turns and which direction do they turn? Next level up from GEARS 2A - this time the direction of turn is required and some turns expressed as fractions. Hopefully student will be starting to get the idea that it is only the FIRST and LAST gears that need to be considered in calculations as intermediate/inbetween gears do not make any difference. 2 worksheets 10 questions Gear clip-art and question images are included for use in your other documents.

GUNPOWDER PLOT GAME (2 player) - Stack barrels of gunpowder and investigate maths strategy.

It is an Adobe Flash file but even if you don’t have this installed it works in Internet Explorer (Right click and open with IE) It is a 2 player game that I have used as a starter (mainly around November 5th in the UK) OR EVEN BASED an ENTIRE LESSON AROUND IT I give the pupils the choice of going first or second. Either me Vs 1 pupil or me Vs the class As I know the strategy that you have to get to 3,9 or 15 first to make sure you it doesn’t matter who goes first as I usually win and it makes them more eager to have another go. It really gets the pupils fired up and after a few games someone might notice what the strategy is or rather part of it. They’ll probably notice first that you alwasy get to 15 first so get them to explain why. (it’s usually “…well if we add 1 you’ll add 5 or if we add 4 you’ll add 2…” etc Get them to think about what they have just said 1+5,2+4 …so its something to do with 6 15 is 6 less than 21 … perhaps you can use this knowledge to make sure you get to 15 first etc etc I have gone on to get them to investigate other target numbers eg 47 find the first number you need to get to 47 /6 is 7 remainder 5 so you need to go first and say 5 if the next player adds 2 you need to add 4 (2+4=6) What would happen if you could place up to 10 barrels and target number was 100?

**If you download and use this Free resource could you please comment/follow so I can use the information to develop addition resources ** A PDF file that had Ladybird Dominoes from 0-0 to 10-10 (66 dominoes over 11 pages) Normal set of dominoes 0-0 to 6-6 just print off pages 1 to 5 A very good activity for learning practicing number bonds to 10 (see image) or just used to play normal dominoes. Other possible ideas are outlined in the PDF. I have printed off a few sets on card and laminated them and are a big hit with the students Each domino is 6cmx12cm at 100% size (print off at lower % if smaller size is required)

I have also provided these as unnumbered CLIP-ART(PDF) to use in you own WORKSHEETS, POWERPOINTS or NOTEBOOK files etc. Each questions comes with its own working/answers also as clipart linked by file name e.g. ASSET 1 / ASSET 1 ANS etc The questions vary in difficulty and include 2D and 3D examples and in some will need other skills such as circumference of a circle etc. I hope they are useful

ART ETCH-A-SKETCH SIMULATION ---- Lunch Time/After School Club--- Special Needs

(0)
I have only used this in an after-school club. The students appeared to like the challenge of drawing the best picture. To use it Adobe Flash Player will need to be installed on the computer (most have it automatically installed) and may work if opened in Internet Explorer Simple to use - Arrow Keys Change colour ,speed and size of pen by clicking with mouse. HARD to get a good picture ( as I suppose an Etch-A-Sketch is). It anyone wants to save and print one they’ve done you’ll have to ‘screen-shot’ it. ( but then you couldn’t keep an Etch-A-Sketch picture) Please comment if you find a use for it

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!
