Ten minutes at a time, this workbook gives your Year 5 or Year 6 child the problem solving practice that class maths keeps asking for.

Word problems are where school maths gets tricky, and this problem solving workbook takes them one short session at a time. The topics follow the National Curriculum for ages 9-11, so the fractions and ratio work matches what your child meets in lessons. A confident Year 4 child can use it to get ahead.

Each page sets eight word problems with boxes for the answers, as the sample pages show, plus a quick time-filler task at the end. Your child works through one page a day in this printed workbook. The parents' notes at the back hold the answers.

Games and short tests break up the practice, so ten minutes rarely feels like a chore. When an answer goes wrong, the notes point out the mistake children usually make and how to avoid it next time. That gives you something useful to say without teaching the method yourself.
