The "Four in Four" challenge is an engaging and timed activity designed for Year 6 students to practise their multiplication and division skills. Each sheet within the set presents four arithmetic problems that must be completed within a strict four-minute timeframe. The exercise aims to enhance speed and accuracy in performing calculations, offering a mix of multiplication and division questions. For instance, Sheet 1 includes problems such as multiplying 624 by 413 and dividing 956 by 17, testing students' proficiency with both larger multiplications and division with remainders.

The "Four in Four" series includes ten sheets, each with a unique set of problems for students to tackle. As students progress through the sets, they encounter a variety of numerical challenges, from multiplying three-digit numbers such as 812 by 658 on Sheet 7, to dividing numbers like 596 by 22 on Sheet 10. The series culminates with an answer sheet that provides the correct solutions to all problems across the ten sheets, allowing both students and educators to check the accuracy of the completed work. This exercise not only reinforces mathematical concepts but also prepares students for the demands of quick mental calculations and written arithmetic under time constraints.
