The resources that I am sharing I have used successfully as a Primary Tutor to develop learning, understanding and confidence with individual students. They can also be used for group work. To keep my teaching skills sharp and to continue to develop my understanding of the curriculum, I also work as a Supply Teacher. Before becoming a Tutor I was a Senior Leader in a large Primary school holding the position of Assess Co-ordinator; I have also been a Year Leader and a SENCO.

PRIME AND SQUARE NUMBER TREE

(0)
I created this activity to support a student with recognising and understanding square and prime numbers; it encourages the student to reflect on their learning and to explain their reasoning with me.  It has proven to be popular with other students too.  The colouring is beneficial to the development of fine motor skills.  The student can also cut out the completed tree which in turn can be used as part of a display.  I have also included a tree template so that you can design your own tree puzzle. My students also like to use the tree template to design their own puzzles too.

This activity not only supports students in understanding area but also gives them an opportunity to practice and recall multiplication facts. (Students may also find the perimeter).

As an extension to the activity, use a blank dice and write larger numbers on it e.g 7, 8 9.
