Description
By the end of Key Stage Two your Year 6 child is expected to work sums out in their head, and this book is that practice at home.
In class those questions come quickly, often against the clock, and there is little time to write anything down. This Mental Maths Buster gives your child the same kind of practice in short bursts. The questions follow the National Curriculum for Year 6. A Year 7 child who wants to feel surer of the basics will find it a kind place to start.
The 44-page printed book is packed with short questions on doubling, division, perimeters and percentages. Your child reads one and writes only the answer. Four realistic tests then follow, each with a script, an answer sheet and an audio file.
The audio reads the questions aloud and keeps the pace up, just as a real mental maths test does. Four complete tests with scripts and answers go further than a handful of sums here and there. A confident Year 5 child who is ahead can use them too.
