What's inside VR Mastery 5
Four real pages from the book, so you can see exactly what your child will work from. All 9 sample pages are in the viewer.
Twelve more 48-question tests, all new, for the holidays before Year 5.
The same ladder as Book 4: an accessible start, building pace, then Year 4 exam standard with an answer sheet. Forty minutes each, one a week. A child who finishes this starts Year 5 having sat 24 full VR tests.
New questions, new mix, the same GL layout.
Test 1 opens with Complete the Calculation, then odd two out, letter connections and more. The order of types is shuffled from Book 4, so your child reads the instructions rather than relying on memory.
Logic questions that reward a quick line or list.
"Mia is older than Vera. Vera is older than Ravi. Who is the second oldest?" The instruction tells your child exactly how to solve it: draw a quick line. Small habits like that are what the mid-book tests build.
The reason behind every answer.
"Left side = 36. So 30 + 6 = 36." "Cellar and basement – the others are high parts of a building." Short, clear explanations a parent can read straight off the page.
All 12 tests in the book follow the pattern shown here.
