Printing Troubleshooting
When printing pdf files of posters to certain printers,
some problems have been found to occur.
One remedy is to locate any "Advanced Printing" options and
select "Print as Image" if you can.
Also, do not have your pdf viewing software reduce the image to fit printer
margins - there is already sufficient blank space around the edges for
this not to be a concern.

the first 41 Posters as SMARTBoard Notebook [1.6Mb]
You can download the full collection of posters
using the above links, or you can download individual posters from
the Gallery. Both Colour and Black and White versions are available.
One way to use them is to print them off A4 size, enlarge photocopy
to A3 coloured card, laminate and then display them on walls. If
you can colour print to A3 coloured paper or card, then that is
even better.
Have your students try and find the mistake in each poster - a great
form of pre-exam revision! |

Stickers
Download
Stickers [1.8Mb] A Mistake’s not
worth making unless you gain recognition for it!
Why not download this pdf file, acquire some sheets of labels for
your printer (either 21 or 24 to a sheet) and have them available
in class to give to students who make the mistakes. Some of the pages
in the pdf file can generate 42 or 48 stickers per sheet of 21/24
stickers, by cutting the sheet along the lines shown.
You’ll be surprised how much pleasure students get from receiving
one of these stickers.
Be careful not to encourage them to make mistakes though….!

Why not play the game of show 10 of them to a class, change one when
they are looking away, and then see if they can name which one has
been changed. |

The REAL Maths Problems
Posters

Posters [1.8Mb] These 23 posters form
a collection of tongue-in-cheek posters, designed to be displayed

question from a maths textbook or exam paper. However, instead of
the traditional ending question, these offer an alternative issue
to consider.
Suggestion: print off A4 size, photocopy to A4 coloured card, laminate
and display.
Warning: not everyone understands these at first reading ... but that’s
often the best bit! |
