This Year 5 Fractions Mistake Investigators resource includes a range of reasoning and problem solving style questions that are similar to questions children could encounter in assessments. The questions are designed to be answered in groups to promote discussion and development of reasoning skills.

The questions cover five multiplication and division objectives to test children's application of formal multiplication and division methods to answer questions.
Twenty questions are included across five sheets of A4, with one sheet per objective.

If you're looking for something that will help your children develop their skills and help them to become more investigative learners, you're in the right place.
