The worksheet provides a series of addition problems where students are tasked with adding two four-digit numbers, with the complexity of requiring more than one exchange (or carry-over) during the calculation. The exercise is designed to enhance the pupils' fluency and precision in performing addition operations. Each sum presents a unique challenge, as the numbers involved often result in carrying digits across to the next column, reinforcing the importance of accurate place value understanding. Students are instructed to complete these calculations in their books, ensuring they have ample practice in the procedure of columnar addition.

For example, one of the problems on the worksheet is 4,346 + 2,313, which totals 6,659 when calculated correctly. The range of sums includes various scenarios where multiple exchanges are necessary, such as adding 1,222 to 2,195, resulting in 3,417, or combining 18,403 with 13,918 to reach a sum of 32,321. The provided answers serve as a reference to check the accuracy of the students' work. This exercise not only helps to solidify their arithmetic skills but also prepares them for more complex mathematical challenges by ensuring a strong foundational understanding of addition with multi-digit numbers.
