Quiz Quest Set

The three resource books in the Quiz Quest series are designed for students who are experiencing difficulties with maths, and need extra learning support. The quizzes are progressive, but also contain elements of revision and reinforcement. The ‘mixed ability’ questions in each quiz are designed to ensure that most students will get a reasonable number correct.

Content of quizzes covers:

• number skills
• fractions
• decimals
• percentages
• ratio and proportion
• time
• geometry
• measurement
• probability
• algebra
• statistics

The quizzes can be used as quick ‘warm ups’, as targeted activities for particular students, to engage pairs or small groups, for early finishers, for homework, or for pre and post testing of various competencies. Answers are provided for self, peer or teacher marking.
