Common questions

What do Year 5 students learn about measurement?

Length, area, volume, mass, time and units. At Year 5, our resources focus on: understanding the difference between perimeter and area; calculating the perimeter and area of rectangles and squares; finding a missing side length from a known area or perimeter; finding the area and perimeter of composite (L-shaped) figures.

Where should we start?

Read the study guide first, then start with the Level 1 or Level 2 worksheet. Finish with the topic test.

Are answers included?

Yes — every worksheet has an answer sheet. Maths answer sheets show the working; English tasks include model answers or success criteria.

How to use these resources

  1. Start with the Level 1 worksheet for the topic — if it's easy, move up a level.
  2. Use the answer sheet's working, not just the final answer, to check the method.
  3. Finish a topic with the topic test to see whether the skill is secure.
  4. Two or three short sessions a week beat one long one.
