Hi Brenda.

How is the going for A star booklet/

We started on percentage.My child spent quite some time in doing it, finished till last section and gave up cos its so time consuming...we decided to KIV and do selectively whenever got times.

Hi Leanne

DD chooses to start with Geometry booklet. She has completed Symmetry, Tessellation and some angels questions yesterday.

I think this is also practical as now their topics after CA2 are Angles, Properties of Triangles, 4 sided figures, Geometrical construction, cube and cuboid etc.

Guess we should be able to complete this 1st booklet after the end of the topics.

We would carry on with the test papers and if there is any problem we would look into the booklet for similar solutions.

Thank you.

The paper is not return yet. Not able to assess the area of losing marks. Usually the full paper is Paper one: 30 Questions and Paper two - 18 Questions. According to DD, their paper one was 15 questions and paper two seems like 10 questions.

If the 6B is available, it'll be better. I believe this book is extending down from the very popular secondary series of assessment books, very thick and heavy books, but content packed.
