Four in Four - Addition and Subtraction Set A - numbers with 1 and 2 decimal places

The "Four in Four" activity series, designed by KS2Gems in 2020, presents a challenge for Year 6 students to sharpen their addition and subtraction skills with numbers that include one and two decimal places. Each sheet contains four calculations, and the goal is for students to complete them accurately within a four-minute time frame. The exercises are laid out in a clear and structured format, with spaces for the date and the student's name, ensuring a personalised approach to learning. These sheets are an excellent tool for reinforcing mathematical fluency and precision in handling decimals, a key aspect of the Year 6 curriculum.

The worksheets vary in complexity and are categorised as Set A, focusing specifically on addition and subtraction problems. The tasks are designed to build confidence and speed in performing arithmetic operations with decimals, a fundamental skill in mathematics. Each sheet also comes with a corresponding answer key, allowing students or teachers to check the solutions promptly, providing immediate feedback. This structured practice not only helps students to consolidate their understanding of decimal numbers but also prepares them for more advanced mathematical concepts in the future.
