Unit Test Paper Analysis
What the 9 analysed Unit Test 1 papers show: where marks were lost and what to reteach.
Patterns
What the paper analysis shows
Choosing the operation
Several students add in every word problem, even "spent from a total" ones. Reteach "total minus parts".
Leading zero
Smallest 6-digit number written with a 0 in front. Seen in at least three papers, so reteach it with the whole class.
Place value & Roman numerals
Expanded form, zero placement and IX / XIV / XVII are the common Section A slips.
Show working
Blank rough boxes cost method marks. Strong papers built times tables in the margin first.
Scores
Written marks across the analysed papers
Class totals. Each paper's notes stay in the workbook; the patterns above sum them up.
