Help your Year 6 students master number patterns with this comprehensive 30-question practice booklet focused on the KS2 SATs Sequences topic. Designed to mirror the style and difficulty of national curriculum assessments, this resource is perfect for targeted revision, morning work, or as a practice assessment.

This 9-page resource includes:

• 30 Targeted Questions: A wide variety of problems ranging from simple linear sequences to complex $n^{th}$ term expressions and visual patterns.
• Diverse Content: Covers whole numbers, decimals, negative numbers, fractions, and special sequences like square, cube, prime, and Fibonacci numbers.
• Visual Problem Solving: Includes questions based on pattern growth (using squares and matches) to help students bridge the gap between shapes and algebra.
• Full Mark Scheme: A complete answer key is included at the back, featuring helpful hints on the rules used and the working required for multi-mark questions.

Topics Covered:

• Identifying rules for ascending and descending sequences (e.g., “add 0.5” or “subtract 15”).
• Finding missing terms in linear and non-linear sequences.
• Calculating specific terms in a sequence (e.g., the 10th, 50th, or 100th term).
• Working backwards to find the first term of a sequence.
• Writing and using $n^{th}$ term expressions (e.g., $3n+4$ and $2n+1$).
• Identifying properties of numbers within a sequence (multiples and non-multiples).

Recommended Time: 40 minutes.
