Four in Four - All Four Operations Set C
Maths Resource Description
The "Four in Four" challenge, created by KS2Gems in 2021, is an engaging exercise for Year 6 students to practise their mathematical skills. The challenge involves completing four different calculations, each representing one of the four basic arithmetic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Students are given a set of calculations to complete within a strict four-minute time limit, encouraging quick thinking and accuracy. Each sheet in the set presents a new set of numbers for the pupils to work with, ensuring a comprehensive practice across a range of numerical values.
The "Four in Four" worksheets are structured to test the students' proficiency in all four operations. For example, one sheet may ask students to multiply 3.257 by 9, divide 38.45 by 5, subtract 0.751 from 1.377, and add 3.265 to 1.778. With multiple sheets in Set C, each offering a unique combination of figures, the exercises are designed to enhance the students' fluency in calculations and reinforce their understanding of each operation. The answer section provides the correct results for each calculation, allowing students to check their work and teachers to assess their performance quickly. The varied and progressive nature of the tasks ensures that students at different levels of ability are both challenged and supported in their learning journey.
