Year 7 Mathematics

Homework Booklet Summer Term

Levels 4-6
Please complete your maths homework regularly – each week
you have a ‘learn’ task (an important skill or fact needed to help
you with your maths), a ‘do’ task (some questions to answer)
and a ‘challenge’ task (a problem for you to try and solve).
Hand your work in regularly and your teacher will let you know
how well you are doing and what progress you are making –
good luck and have fun!

Dear Parent

As outlined on the front cover, mathematics homework in year 7 is

organised in a ‘learn, do, challenge’ format. The learn and do tasks are
split into different levels and your child should attempt work in line with
their working level and target. Your child should attempt the level
task each week unless otherwise directed by their
teacher – this may mean them completing questions at one, two or
even three levels. The challenge tasks are short problem solving
activities that any pupil can attempt. These questions are taken from
‘UKMT Mathematics Challenge’ papers – some pupils will take part in
the annual national UKMT Challenge during year 7.

Your child’s working level at the start of year 7 and their end of year 7
target level is shown at the bottom of this page.

Any learn or do task that has a bold heading indicates that the task is
linked to a key area of maths, which needs to be understood in order to
contribute towards being confident working at that level.
These areas will be assessed in more detail in lessons and formal
assessments.

We hope that your child enjoys attempting their maths homework and
achieves success in the process.
