I've been using Exam Ninja books for around five years to help my nine-year-old daughter with her schooling. We buy a set for each year and my daughter works her way through them, a little each day, with my assistance. These are an excellent resource for boosting a child's learning journey and supporting the school curriculum.

About the Mental Arithmetic Book 3 (Ages 7-11)

Mental Arithmetic Book 3 (Ages 7-11) gives Year 3 to Year 6 pupils structured practice in the mental maths skills they need for confident progress through Key Stage 2 and success in national tests and 11+ preparation. This single workbook from Schofield and Sims contains 36 carefully graded one-page tests covering fractions, decimals, Roman numerals, geometry, time, problem solving and statistics, so your child works at the right level and builds fluency step by step. Each test uses a unique three-part format: questions with minimal language, questions using number vocabulary, and word problems that develop reasoning skills.

The book includes Progress Tests to track learning as your child moves through the exercises, plus Check-up Tests that pinpoint any gaps before they become obstacles. Because the series is structured by ability rather than age, pupils can move at their own pace and consolidate understanding without pressure. Answers are available in the answer booklet (sold separately), making marking straightforward and giving you clear visibility of progress. Free online resources and additional downloads are also available from the Schofield & Sims website to support practice at home.

The workbook aligns with the English National Curriculum for Key Stage 2 and covers the breadth of topics tested in SATs and independent school entrance exams. By working through varied question types—from negative numbers and equivalent fractions to interpreting tables and classifying shapes—pupils develop the flexible thinking and problem-solving stamina that examiners reward. This is a physical workbook delivered to your door, ready to use straight away.
