Six pages of timetable work for Year 5 maths homework. Pupils read a local bus timetable, timing the trip from the High Street to the Retail Park, work with inter-city trains between London King's Cross and York, then plan a full return journey from Newcastle, checking whether every train takes the same time. A complete answer key is included. It covers the England National Curriculum objective on tables and timetables.
