Four in Four - All Four Operations Set E
Maths Resource Description
The "Four in Four" challenge from KS2Gems is an engaging exercise designed for Year 4 students to practice their mathematical skills across all four basic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The task requires the completion of four different calculations within a strict timeframe of four minutes, testing both the students' arithmetic proficiency and their ability to work under time pressure. Each sheet presents a new set of problems, varying in complexity, to ensure a comprehensive workout of the students' mathematical muscles. The calculations range from simple multiplications, such as "28 x 8", to more complex multi-step problems involving both addition and subtraction, like "4789 + 1576" and "1533 - 979".
Accompanying the challenge sheets are the answer sheets, which provide the correct solutions to the problems posed in the exercise. These answers serve as a quick reference for educators to assess the accuracy of the students' work. For instance, the sum "4789 + 1576" equals "6365", while the subtraction "1533 - 979" results in "554". The multiplication "28 x 8" has an answer of "224", and the division "39 ÷ 9" concludes with "4 with a remainder of 3". These answer sheets are an essential tool for verifying the students' calculations and providing immediate feedback, which is crucial for effective learning and reinforcement of mathematical concepts.
