Year 5 summer revision FAQ

What is in the Year 5 summer revision booklet?

10 short days of maths revision, two days to a printed page, each with five mixed questions and one summer story problem, then a one-page "Ready for Year 6" check. It revises multiplying larger numbers, division with remainders, rounding to check answers, decimals, fractions, factors and multiples, metric units and 12- and 24-hour time. There are 68 questions in all, with an answer key at the back.

How long does each day take?

About ten minutes. It is designed to keep skills warm over the break, not to fill the holidays, so one day at a time works better than doing several at once.

Is the answer key correct?

Yes. Every question comes from ChalkBee's procedural maths generators or a summer story template that computes its answer from the numbers in the question. Nothing is typed by hand or written by AI.

My child found some of it hard. What should I do?

That is useful to know before Year 6 starts. Note which topics were tricky using the labels next to each question, and try the matching Year 5 topic worksheets. It is also worth mentioning to the new teacher at the start of the year.
