Four in Four - All Four Operations Set F
Maths Resource Description
The "Four in Four" activity from KS2Gems is a fast-paced mathematical challenge designed for Year 4 students to practice all four arithmetic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Each set, labelled as "Set F," contains ten sheets, and each sheet presents four different calculations that students must complete within a strict time limit of four minutes. This exercise is aimed at enhancing the students' computational fluency and accuracy under time constraints, ensuring they are adept at quickly solving a variety of problems.
The exercises cover a range of calculations, including multiplying two-digit numbers by single digits, dividing two-digit numbers with remainders, adding large numbers, and subtracting hundreds. For example, one sheet may ask students to multiply 68 by 8, divide 29 by 9, subtract 979 from 2083, and add 5389 to 3176. The answers are provided separately, allowing students or educators to check the completed work. With each sheet offering a new set of calculations, the "Four in Four" activity serves as a comprehensive tool for reinforcing arithmetic skills in a fun and engaging manner.
