About the 10 Minutes A Day Problem Solving (Ages 7-9)
10 Minutes A Day Problem Solving (Ages 7-9) gives Year 3 and Year 4 children the tools they need to tackle tricky maths questions with confidence. Designed by Carol Vorderman and published by Dorling Kindersley, this workbook breaks down problem-solving into short, manageable sessions that fit perfectly into busy family routines. Each page focuses on real-world challenges—fractions, telling the time, ratio and proportion—so your child learns to think logically and apply their knowledge under exam conditions.
Inside you'll find bite-sized activities that keep concentration high and frustration low: games, puzzles and quick tests all aligned to the National Curriculum for Key Stage 2. The parents' notes at the back provide full answers, highlight common mistakes, and offer clear guidance on how to support your child at home. Because every exercise is designed to be completed in just ten minutes, this workbook slots easily into after-school evenings or weekend mornings without adding pressure.

Regular practice builds the mathematical reasoning skills that underpin success in Year 3 and Year 4 assessments, and it helps your child approach unfamiliar questions calmly. The mix of word problems, time-tables and graph work mirrors the variety they'll meet in school tests, so revision feels familiar rather than daunting. This physical workbook is dispatched quickly, ready to start the very next day.
This resource suits any parent looking for a no-fuss way to reinforce problem-solving at home. The clear layout, visual prompts and step-by-step structure mean children can work independently while you check progress using the answer key. Whether your child needs a confidence boost or wants to stay sharp between terms, ten minutes a day is all it takes.
