How to use the 20 practice sets
| Sets | When to use | | --- | --- | | 1–5 | Intro — explore together, short written items | | 6–10 | Core skills — diagrams and written practice | | 11–15 | Mixed review — explain thinking | | 16–20 | Stretch — word problems and mastery tasks |
Pacing: 10–15 minutes per session.
How to practice
1. Shape hunt at home — find circles, rectangles, etc. 2. Count sides and corners 3. Sort shapes by attribute

Common mistakes
- Naming by orientation instead of attributes
- Confusing flat and solid shapes
Review and practice tests
1. Start Review 1/10 when sets 1–3 feel comfortable. 2. Move up one review level with little help. 3. Use Practice Test 4/10–6/10 for mid-standard checks. 4. Practice Test 10/10 is the mastery bar for 5.G.A.2.
