The format of Mental Arithmetic differs from that of traditional mental arithmetic materials in that pupils read the questions themselves, use rough paper for workings out, and write down their answers. It provides intensive practice in all areas of the maths curriculum.

This photocopiable resource for Key Stage 2 is divided into two main parts. The first covers the important areas of mental maths, such as the four rules, fractions, decimals, money and time, and the second part presents associated topics to enable pupils to employ mental skills in contexts such as shape and measures. The work is at two levels of difficulty: National Curriculum Level 3, and Levels 4-5.

The First Mental Arithmetic Answers book provides the correct answers to all the questions contained in the corresponding workbook. Answers to the Check-up tests are included, together with the photocopiable Group record sheets and an additional photocopiable Check-up.
