The online companion of the paper exercises we are doing in class.

If you want something extra, both the following websites are interactive and good for practising times tables (and other number skills for Hit the Button).

Past SAT papers

There are a number of websites that allow free access to past SAT papers if you want some extra practice. Past Maths papers are the easiest and, perhaps, the best to do at home. For most children, the greatest need at the moment is the unpicking of longer worded questions – working out how many steps the question has and want it actually wants as an answer.
