This section can be used to remind children of work previously covered, as well as providing material for the less confident child. Section B: activities based upon the requirements for Year 5 pupils. Most children should be able to work successfully at this level. Section C: activities providing extension material for the faster workers and for those who need to be moved quickly onto more challenging tasks. The work in this section generally matches the requirements for Year 6 pupils. Problems in Section C can also provide useful material for discussion in the plenary session.
