The children will be following the Power Maths scheme.

They will be developing previously learnt skills in place value, addition and subtraction and apply them when working with 4-digit numbers.

Children will learn to represent 4-digit numbers and count in 1,000s. They will move on to comparing 4-digit numbers and ordering numbers to 10,000. This prepares them for tackling addition and subtraction of 4-digit numbers, including numbers where exchanges are needed in more than one column. It further develops their estimation and answer-checking strategies and their problem-solving skills. 

Multiplication Check

The Year 4 multiplication check will commence in June 2025.

The test will assess all of the children's times tables up to the 12 times table. There will be 25 random multiplication questions that the children will have 6 seconds to answer. The children are aiming to get all 25 correct. We will be helping the children to achieve this at school but any additional help and support with improving your child's times tables at home would be extremely beneficial. Times Table Rockstars is a really useful website to support times table practise and the website link to this is below.
