Very in-depth for the age group needed. I like the idea of glossary terms at the back if they don't understand. Would recommend.

I ordered a few books for my children. I really liked the packs. Everything in one pack for each subject. Resources are up to date. I highly recommend Exam Ninja.

About the Mental Arithmetic Book 1 (Ages 7-11)

Here are our top reasons to buy the Mental Arithmetic Book 1 (Ages 7-11):

  • 36 one-page tests, each in the same three-part format
  • Covers times tables, fractions, telling the time, geometry, statistics and number vocabulary
  • Tailored to the National Curriculum for primary maths, for Years 3 to 6
  • Progress tests and check-up tests show you what has stuck
  • Book 1 of a series graded by ability, with an answer book available separately

One test a day, and your Year 3 child builds the quick mental maths that lessons keep asking for, in a book that runs to ages 7-11.

A test page with 20 mixed maths questions including addition, subtraction, time-telling and word problems
Children solve 20 mixed maths questions, including addition, subtraction, time-telling and word problems.

Your Year 3 or Year 4 child does mental maths in class most days, and this workbook carries that on at home. The questions follow the National Curriculum for primary maths, covering times tables, fractions, telling the time, shapes and statistics. A Year 7 child rebuilding basic number work can use it too.

A check-up test with abacus reading, number writing, and mixed addition and subtraction questions
Children write numbers from abacus diagrams, convert words to digits, and solve mixed addition and subtraction sums.

Each of the 36 one-page tests in this printed workbook comes in three parts: short calculations, questions using number vocabulary, then one- and two-step word problems. The first sample page shows 20 mixed questions. An answer book is available separately.

The front cover of Mental Arithmetic 1 features a brain graphic filled with maths symbols and the title in bold white text

Book 1 opens a series graded by ability rather than age, and it sits at lower Key Stage 2 level. Two entry tests in the Teacher's Guide help you place your child, so a confident Year 2 can start here while a Year 5 may need a later book. Progress tests along the way show you what has stuck.
