About the Mental Arithmetic Book 6 (Ages 7-11)
Here are our top reasons to buy the Mental Arithmetic Book 6 (Ages 7-11):
- 36 one-page tests of mental maths practice, tailored to the National Curriculum for primary maths
- Every test has three parts: short calculations, questions using number vocabulary, then one- and two-step word problems
- Covers algebra, geometry and problem solving, and reaches past KS2 into ideas such as profit and loss and spreadsheets
- Revision tests and achievement charts show you what has stuck and what is still to come
- Graded by ability, not age, with 2 entry tests in the separate Teacher's Guide to place your child; an answer book is available separately
If your Year 5 or Year 6 child knows the maths but works slowly, this is the book that builds their speed.

Mental Arithmetic Book 6 gives children in Years 3 to 7 the quick number work lessons lean on. It sits at the end of a series graded by ability rather than age, so most children reach it in the upper primary years. A Year 8 child who needs to rebuild the basics can work through it as well.

Each of the 36 one-page tests runs in three parts: short calculations first, then questions using number vocabulary, then one- and two-step word problems. The printed workbook's Test 2 mixes conversions with labelling shapes on a coordinate grid.

Revision tests gather 25 mixed questions, so you can see what has stuck, and achievement charts track progress. Two entry tests in the Teacher's Guide place your child, and an answer book is available separately.
