YEAR 6 Daily Reasoning Questions (2 Marks)

A full year’s worth of daily reasoning practice: 160 two-mark, SATs-style reasoning questions in the familiar “speech bubble” format, ready to print, trim and stick straight into books.

What’s included

Worksheet pack — 160 tasks, 3 per A4 page, each on its own trim-off strip with name/date line, the question prompt and three well-spaced writing lines.
Answer sheet — compact model answers, 20 per page, for quick whole-class marking.
Question & answer display PDF — landscape A4, one task per page followed by the answer page with a full explanation of the maths and mark guidance. Ideal for projecting during the daily review.
Coverage — evenly spread across place value, the four operations, fractions, decimals and percentages, ratio and proportion, algebra, measurement, geometry, position and direction, statistics, time and money, and number patterns.

Question styles — “Explain why X is not correct”, “Is X correct? Explain your answer” and “Explain how you know”, so children practise spotting errors, evaluating claims and justifying reasoning.

How to use — one task a day as a starter or morning activity: 5 minutes to answer, 5 minutes to share reasoning using the display pages. Each task is worth 2 marks: one for the correct statement or calculation, one for a clear explanation.
