• Test items from each of the topics are provided (16 tests for Year 5, 16 tests for Year 6).
• The student should study one section at a time and then complete the test related to that section.
• At the top of each test is a section entitled Number Facts.  These sections have been designed to allow students to practise their number facts regularly to help with speed and accuracy.
• The remaining sections of each test are general multiple choice items.

In a few cases in the Answer segments there are questions for which there is no single correct answer.  The phrases ‘Sample Answers’ or ‘Answers will vary’ are used to indicate that extra attention needs to be paid to the student’s responses.
