This Year 6 Non-Negotiables Activity Pack is ideal to use throughout the year to check children's progress against different maths topics. We've included questions on topics such as number, calculations, fractions and ratio in the form of an assessment, so that children can showcase their knowledge. We've chosen these topics as they cover the basic maths skills children need in order to complete work in other key areas across the curriculum. The pack consists of a teacher's guidance page, a list of end of year expectations for year 6, then four pages of questions based on the expectations, and finishes off with answer pages.

Use this as part of your ongoing assessments throughout the year to show progress again key mathematical skills. This is the perfect resource for an independent task and can inform any gaps in children's learning and where an intervention program might be useful. It can also be a great tool to use to show parents how well their child is progressing too.
