About the KS2 Problem Solving Workbook 1 (Ages 7-11)
The KS2 Problem Solving Workbook 1 (Ages 7-11) from Schofield and Sims gives Year 3 and Year 4 pupils the chance to practise applying their maths skills to everyday situations. If your child can tackle calculations in class but struggles when faced with real-world questions about shopping, time, or measuring, this workbook builds the logical thinking and confidence they need to solve problems independently.
Each page presents a fresh challenge drawn from daily life: counting coins and calculating change, reading scales for height and capacity, spotting patterns in data, working with multiples, and telling the time. The graded activities start gently and grow more demanding, so children learn to interpret questions, choose the right operation, and check their work without feeling overwhelmed. Topics include data handling, equations, multiples of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 10, lines of symmetry, money (recognising coins to £1), and measuring height, length, distance, capacity, and time. Answers are included at the back, making it easy for you to support homework or revision sessions at home.
By working through this workbook, your child will become comfortable translating words into numbers and spotting the maths hidden in recipes, timetables, and pocket money. That shift from rote learning to practical problem-solving supports the Key Stage 2 National Curriculum and prepares them for reasoning questions in class tests and SATs. The book is a physical workbook, shipped quickly across the UK, so you can start building those essential skills as soon as it arrives.
This workbook suits any Year 3 or Year 4 pupil who is ready to move beyond worksheets of sums and start thinking like a mathematician. The clear layout, step-by-step progression, and familiar scenarios keep frustration low and motivation high, whether your child works independently or alongside you.
