We've created two different problem-solving style questions and a reasoning style question, with two of each question type for children to develop their skills. This resource has been differentiated three ways to support all levels of challenge in your class.

An ideal activity to use after your teaching input and following a set of varied fluency questions. It would work well alongside our accompanying resources in this lesson too. We've given you an easy-to-follow answer page too to help speed up your marking time, or to encourage children to peer or self assess their work.
