KS2 Maths Targeted Question Book - Year 6

Description

This book is packed with test-style practice questions for Year 6 Maths pupils (ages 10-11). There’s a section of questions for each topic, with space on each page to write the answers and any working out, plus mark-scheme boxes in the margin so that you can keep track of their progress (complete answers are included at the back for easy marking). The book also contains two Objectives Tests - one at the start of the book that recaps the Year 5 skills, and one at the end that covers a mixture of topics from Year 6. Matching study notes are available in CGP’s Targeted Study Book for Year 6 Maths - see 9781847621931. Review: Good book to compliment study book - The book came on time (delivered by desertcart - thanks desertcart). The question content of the book is very well written - aimed at Primary school children aged 9-11, depending upon ability of course around class 4,5 or 6, though younger and older children may find it useful depending on personal ability. If you have a child who is particularly confident with their maths, and already wanting to do more, then this book will be a great way to test their knowledge. This is great if you feel your child needs more stimulation, than the current homework or class content is providing, as it doesnt really feel like homework when you are reading through it. It's best done with parents of course, who can then hopefully go on to expand and talk about the different methods used, including the good old "oh right, they want you to do it this way....welll.....in MY day, we did it this way....etc" - i'd recommend buying the study book also, so you can go back over it, if you child struggles on any particular topic or question. It will help build your childs confidence, so when it eventually does appear in class, they can think to themsaelves "oh, ive done this already, i know this". The increase in confidence from previous practice will allow your child to perform better in any tests based on this information also. I'd recommend this book to any parent who: 1) wants their child to feel more confident with their maths in school, and as a result of that confidence, to get better results, and to be able to do the questions more quickly, allowing more time for checking, and rechecking of answers. 2) Wants their child to keep up with the expected knowledge base of maths at their school, especially if they are in a mixed class, as sometimes your child may be tested on things they've not even seen in class yet. This will allow them to keep up. Review: As expected - Best educational series
