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!

All are PDF files and sometime when viewing you might need to either zoom in or out to see the detail
If printing the A3 version you will need to make sure it is sent to an A3 printer otherwise it will try to tile and youâll end up with 4 sheets instead of 1.
Any of the colour versions will print grey if printed in greyscale in various shades of grey depending on the colour. I have included a grey version that should print 50% black.
IF there are any other PAPERS you want adding to this collection please make a comment and iâll endeavour to add it to the collect as soon as possible.
I hope there are useful!

I now have a set of 25 PRIME PIXEL PICTURES available to download - with various difficulties- worksheets and answers
Use to improve students identification of 3d - solid - shapes and info about them.
This resource is best used on an interactive whiteboard.
You will need Adobe Flash Player on your computer (most have it installed as standard)
The activity is to Drag a shape into itâs appropriate position. If it is correct it snaps into place. If itâs incorrect it will return to the top.
If you click the ? next to each box it gives info about that shape (click the ? again to make it close before proceeding)
I have other resources similar to this for 2d shapes and matching formulas to shapes.
A fun activity to find the 20 differences.
Quite challenging.
Suggest laminating and using dry wipe markers so can be used again in the future.
Could be used as an activity where the students have to write a description of where the differences are.
PLEASE TRY THE FREE VERSION FIRST
A fun way to learn the prime numbers less than 100
A set of 25 pixel picture puzzles
Shade the squares that have prime numbers
Identify Prime and Composite (non-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 ADOBEâs InDesign to make this set of puzzles

Please note
This resource is the beginnings of an idea.
It is as uploaded and as yet UNTESTED with a class.
It has been designed to make basic calculations a bit more interesting and in some of the examples a little more challenging.
Please let me know what you think of this as an idea and if it is any good and thoughts on improving it.
Any questions please contact me.
I will make more associated resources if people think it will be worthwhile.
Please REVIEW if possible
