Looks great! So nice to see all these new problems, the cover images are perfect also.
I really struggled to find any corrections at all, but after some time I did manage to find a couple small ones :D - comments inline.
But will merge these in now, so just make the corrections whenever next working on these.
Thanks again!

||
| This activity looks at the interesting concept of having a circle with n points on its perimeter and what happens when you joint those points up. |
| There are lots of ways you can make this problem more challenging and interesting, | ||
| which include: | ||
|
|
||
| - Add more lily pads, is it still possible with 6, 10 or N? |

Can we format this as a table to keep images on the right and text on the left?
|
|
||
| **So we just need to work out how many square numbers there are between 1 and 1000?** | ||
|
|
||
| If we think about the larges square number less than 1000, **<span style="color:brown">30x30=900, 31x31=961,</span> <span style="color:red">32x32=1024</span>** |

Nice idea to pass styling direct! I'm not sure why, but this isn't working (an issue with the app code I think), so I'll investigate at a future point.
For now to keep the emphasis for the final line I think we should just underine. I know markdown doesn't support this, but I think it will work with a <u> tag, i.e.
<u style="color:red;">32x32=1024</u>

| This is another problem where the solution seems impossible because there are too many things to consider (1000 monkeys!), but again becomes achievable once simplified and able to see patterns. To start the problem you should ensure students understand the rules, perhaps imitating with 4 students and the same number of coins or cards that can be flipped to face up or down. | ||

| The first student flip all cards up (u): [u, u, u, u] |

This might be easier to format as a table than using spaces, but it is still fine like this

This was such a long set of notes! Looks great, a few very minor typos:
-
If you search for
<sup>(space at start) you will see a 6 places where thethis not next to the number, e.g.50 <sup>th</sup> -
There are also a couple headings where it would be good to include the
<sup>, e.g. What happens if the egg breaks from the 14 th floor?`
