Ideal preparation for eleven plus exams, common entrance exams and grammar school selection tests.

Mathematics reasoning is often part of grammar school selection exams or Elevenplus tests. A good grasp and knowledge of all aspects of Mathematics are essential to aid your child in preparing for their eleven plus tests, grammar school selection exams or common entrance examinations. This book contains 10 tests of 50 questions each based on the requirements of the National Curriculum and covering various aspects of Maths such as Algebra, measures, shape and space and data handling. Knowledge of all these items will help prepare your child for the demands of any eleven plus exams or twelve plus exams. Mathematics tests often form part of a selective schools entrance exam or grammar school selection exam. (This will vary from school to school. You should check elevenplus test papers or selective schools examination requirements with your chosen grammar schools or your Local Authority. Kent, Bucks and Essex all have some form of 11 plus examination.)

This is a very comprehensive publication making use of a variety of question types. These are the sorts of questions that children may meet in their end of Key Stage tests at Key Stage 2 or eleven plus exams or independent schools selection tests. This book gives children a good introduction to the demands of mathematical reasoning tests. No time limit is given and this allows parents to encourage their child to work through the tests at the child's own pace. The level of mathematical language used is very beneficial practice for future tests in verbal reasoning or Non-verbal Reasoning used by many Local Authorities in Eleven plus exams.

Detachable answers and a comprehensive glossary are included.

As with all Learning Together practice tests we encourage the involvement of parents to explain the answers to the child. Parental support is crucial to a child's success in their schoolwork. Preparing for the eleven plus tests, SATs or grammar schools entrance exams is no different.
