German term
Päckchen
German to English
Science
Mathematics & Statistics
This is a term used in a school book on mathematics (more to follow). Unfortunately I do not have much text; the word is used as a heading before a list of basic calculations (decimal number = fraction = percentage). The only other use of the word is "Stelle zu folgenden Zahlen ein weiteres Päckchen her:"
I have temporarily used "packet" but I am not at all sure whether this is correct, and Google has not helped me.

My guess. Compare with this:
"Each testing session involved an instruction and practice period followed by taking the test in which residents attempt to solve 75 simple math problems in blocks of 3 to 7 problems per block."https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2699161/

Danke. Aber leider kann ich nichts finden, dass eine englisches Begriff gibt. |

I'm going to have a few more questions in the next couple of days, but due to being a bit befuddled with Glühwein at the moment I am refraining from actual work this evening.
Yes, that was what I was aiming for; sorry if I didn't make that clear enough. They show you a "Päckchen" and ask you to answer these "questions"--nothing more. I liked "Phil's "a set of" if you need something. I wasn't trying to overthink this; I was trying to find something to confirm that it doesn't seem to involve any "education jargon," as you put it.
Sarah, one of your question was about "Distributivgesetz" if I saw this correctly. This page says that's 5th/6th grade (form in the UK, right?):

Corroborated by other websites. That'd be Key Stage 2 in the UK, I think:

There are more book examples like mine online; I thought maybe they could provide some help along the way.

I really suspect we're overthinking this.

Have a "look inside." They seem to call them "questions," as shown on pp. 7 through 8.
Enjoy your weekend!
At the end of the day, I totally agree with you: KISS.
KISS method--nothing else will work here.
