Tips
Getting ready for Grade 5
- Find the shaded face and its dot on both pictures first: they tell you which way the solid is turned.
- In Visual Memory, give each shape a name (a boot, a fish) and say where its black part is.
- Fold one face at a time from the shaded face, saying which face of the solid each becomes.
- In Block Rotation, look for the mirror image: it has a piece sticking out on the wrong side.

The Spatial Test Battery (STB) is given by the Johns Hopkins Center for Talented Youth (CTY). Scholar Tests is not affiliated with or endorsed by Johns Hopkins University, CTY or any school. Our spatial reasoning questions are written and drawn by us in the published shape of its subtests; they are not real test questions, and a practice score is not an STB score and says nothing about CTY eligibility.
