Cubes & Nets in Kent test?

Hi
My daughter is struggling with which cube cannot be made from the given net questions (NVR), Are these questions likely to appear in the Kent test? I'm not sure how much time we should be spending going through them especially if they are unlikely to actually appear.
Thanks
Ann

They haven't turned up in the past, I'd be inclined to cover it briefly as they also crop up at school. I sympathise withhyourdaughter, I find those spatial things really difficult
(can't parallel park either!)

Thanks for the prompt reply yoyo123.

I think in that case we'll touch breifly on it. For some reason it's the only area we've done so far where she just can't get it. To be fair i've also struggled on most of them! I've even tried printing out cube nets to fold etc but she still seems to struggle.
Thanks

That's the hardest part of NVR.

Top of my head - net cubes question did come up. Not sure whether it was Kent or Bexley.
