Students answer two multiple-choice questions about lightning and determine how far away a thunderstorm is by doing a calculation.

This practical task requires students to describe to a partner their observations about an ice cube melting. Students then develop questions about what they observe.

Students read some information about testing the absorbency of different papers. They outline two features that need to be kept the same if the tests were to be fair.

Students give two pieces of information a scientist could learn from placing bands on the legs of birds.

Using place value blocks students demonstrate their ability to explain the meaning of digits in decimal numbers up to 3 decimal places.

For this practical task students use their knowledge about the properties of gases to explain their observations when they blow up a balloon that is inside a bottle and a balloon that is not inside a bottle.

Students identify different ways that given amounts of money can be made up using a range of coins and notes.

Students calculate the area of composite shapes.

In this practical task, students cut out triangles and rectangles to make three different nets for a triangular prism.

Students work out area, length and angles of a shape after enlargement.

In this practical task, students construct pyramid patterns using triangles. They then predict how many triangles would be needed for the next size pyramid and explain their rule.

Students look at two diagrams. The first shows iron nails in test tubes with boiled water or tap water, the second shows iron nails with moisture either present or absent. Students answer five questions about these investigations.

Students indicate for each of six different variables those that need to be kept the same for an investigation about dissolving different types of sugar.

Student solve multiplication and division problems that involve money.

Students design an advertisement to sell a bike.

For this practical students make observations on water flow from three holes set at different heights in a container. They also investigate the effect on water flow if the top is on or off the container.

Students complete a table to show the amount of money paid for work, and finish a rule to describe the relationship.

Students interpret information about unnamed planets and their length of year to answer questions about their distance from the Sun and the order of these planets from the Sun.

Students identify the rule for continuing number patterns then develop their own pattern and write it as a rule.

This practical task requires students to use straws to build up a linear pattern. Students then predict the number of straws needed for successive patterns and explain their rule.

Students describe the shape of two distinctive dot plots showing different data.

Students answer two questions about the number of seats available as more tables are added to a row, and state a rule for the pattern.

Describe methods for speeding up and slowing down melting of an ice cube using one of three provided objects, and explain why the methods would work. Assessment focus: planning an investigation.

Task: Make a sound gun and use it to investigate what happens to a candle when the end of the sound gun is tapped. Assessment focus: sound waves.

Students are given stimulus material on the stopping distance of a toy car released from different heights. Students write an aim, the best way to present the results, identify the measurement required in order to calculate the average speed, and write a conclusion for the investigation.
