Common questions

What do Year 6 students learn about volume & capacity?

Volume of prisms and capacity conversions. At Year 6, our resources focus on: finding the volume of rectangular prisms; using V = length × width × height; finding the volume of triangular prisms; working backwards from volume.

Where should we start?

Start with the Level 1 or Level 2 worksheet, then move up a level. Finish with the topic test if there is one.

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.
