About the 10 Minutes A Day Problem Solving (Ages 9-11)

10 Minutes A Day Problem Solving (Ages 9-11) is the workbook that turns maths anxiety into confident problem-solving for Year 5 and Year 6 pupils. Created by Carol Vorderman and published by Dorling Kindersley, it delivers focused practice on fractions, ratio and proportion in daily ten-minute sessions that fit around homework, tea-time and busy family schedules. Each activity is aligned with the English National Curriculum, so every page builds the reasoning skills your child needs for Key Stage 2 tests and secondary school.

The workbook breaks complex problem-solving into short, manageable exercises that hold attention without overwhelming. Games and quick tests keep practice engaging, while the parents' notes at the back provide full answers, highlight common mistakes and offer clear guidance on supporting your child. Whether your pupil struggles with negative numbers or needs extra practice applying fractions to real-world scenarios, the step-by-step approach ensures they grasp each concept before moving forward.

Sample page showing ratio problems with everyday contexts including model ships, car parks and food — Inside pages feature ratio challenges using relatable contexts like model ships, car parks and chocolate boxes to build problem-solving confidence

Regular, short bursts of practice build fluency and stamina, so your child arrives at assessments with the skills and self-assurance to tackle multi-step questions calmly. The workbook reinforces classroom learning at home, turning tricky topics into strengths and giving you the tools to support progress without needing a teaching qualification. It is a physical workbook that ships to your door, ready to slot into your evening or weekend routine.

This workbook suits any Year 5 or Year 6 pupil working towards stronger problem-solving in maths, whether you are supplementing school lessons, preparing for end-of-year assessments or building foundations for the transition to secondary. The ten-minute structure respects your child's concentration span and your family's time, making daily practice achievable and stress-free.
