How to use it

Read every clue or rule before filling anything in. Use a pencil so changes are easy to make. It is one of the harder sheets for Grades 3–5, best once the basics of the skill are secure.

An answer key comes with it as a separate page that grown-ups download after signing in.

Tip for grown-ups: Mark every no from each clue first; the yes answers follow.

Done on paper? A grown-up can record it on the child's page in PlayOwl; downloading alone doesn't count as finished.
