    YEAR 6 MENTAL MATHS TESTS

    Autumn Test 1
    Questions, Answers and Topic Information
    Read the following instructions or press ‘play’ u and listen to the instructions being read from the CD-ROM.
    Listen carefully to the instructions I am going to give you. When I have finished reading them, I will answer any
    questions. You will not be able to ask any questions once the test has begun.
    I am going to ask you 20 questions. On your sheet there is an answer box for each question, where you should write
    the answer to the question and nothing else. You should work out the answer to each question in your head, but
    you may jot things down outside the answer box if this helps you. Do not try to write down your working because
    this will waste time and you may miss the next question. For some of the questions, important information is
    already written down for you on the answer sheet.
    I will read each question twice. Listen carefully both times. You will then have time to work out your answer. If you
    cannot work out an answer, put a cross in the answer box. If you make a mistake, cross out the wrong answer and
    write the correct one next to it. There are some easy and some harder questions, so do not be put off if you cannot
    answer a question.
    Now pause, or press ‘pause’ SS on your CD player or computer. Ask the children if they have any questions. Once you have
    answered all the questions, read out the following instructions. Alternatively, play the audio recording from the CD-ROM.

    u Now we are ready to start the test.
