Practice and check
Worked example
Look up each symbol separately and keep its position. A zero at the start is still part of the answer.
○=3 → □=0 → △=7 → 307
- Read one problem and its conditions before starting. Work without a timer, and keep the key visible where the task requires it.
- A repeated symbol keeps the same digit. Do not replace a symbol with its position in the row or read the row backward.
- Start with three symbols, then four, then five. The last two rows also use the star and hexagon from the key.

Look up each symbol separately and keep its position. A zero at the start is still part of the answer.
Why this answer
- 1. ○=3 → □=0 → △=7 → 307
- 2. ◇=5 → ○=3 → □=0 → 530
- 3. □=0 → △=7 → ◇=5 → ○=3 → 0753
- 4. △=7 → ○=3 → △=7 → □=0 → 7370
- 5. ☆=8 → ⬡=1 → □=0 → ◇=5 → ☆=8 → 81058
- 6. ⬡=1 → △=7 → ☆=8 → ○=3 → □=0 → 17830
- If an answer differs, return to the first step that differs and explain the choice. Change the answer after checking rather than guessing a new rule.
- Try the next step when the current method feels manageable. You may repeat a problem, use a paper marker, or stop and return later.
- Original practice activities, not a standardized test or IQ score. Steps describe the task, not an age or ability grade.
Tips for Parents
What is on the sheet Use the key. Write one digit for each symbol, in the shown order. Start with three symbols, then four, then five. The last two rows also use the star and hexagon from the key.
