This activity is an adaptation of the incredible 'Prime Climb' mathematical exploration created by Daniel Finkel and Katherine Cook of Math for Love. This resource is a classroom display that mimics the 'prime climb' array, allowing students to be allocated values and then they can colour or paint the values according to their prime building blocks. The intent is for the visual and the learning behind it remains visible within the classroom once it is displayed. The pack includes the following
