Year 4: Revise adding to 50
Here is a snappy little worksheet to check that children can add on from 2-digit numbers to make 50. There are several different mental strategies that can be used, but the most efficient is usually to count on to the next whole ten and then count on in tens to 50.
Watch out for a common error whereby children add on to make 10 and then add on again from the original tens number; this will give them a total 10 more than is correct.
Year 4 maths worksheet: multiples of 10
The summer holidays are drawing to a close so what better for all those children just entering year 4 than a nice little mental arithmetic page. This page looks again at multiplying 2-digit multiples of 10 by a single digit. Dead easy if tables are known. If tables are not known this becomes much more difficult, so it is a good page to give to check that tables are sharp!
This page and many similar can be found in our Year 4 maths resources, Knowing Number Facts.

Year 4 maths worksheet: Counting
Whilst children get used to counting on in tens and hundreds, sometimes it can be useful to count on in 25s and 50s, especially when using money or measurement. This is the second page published on counting in 25s and 50s, concentrating on money and is probably most suited to year 4 children.
This page can also be used to check that children use the correct method of writing money – some are very keen on adding a p, making £6.90 become £6.90p, which of course is incorrect.

Calculator game: 7x table
Of all the tables, the 7x table is probably the least well known. The latest in our series of calculator games for two players helps with reinforcing the 7x table. Remember, as before, the aim of the game is to get four in a row, in any direction, before your opponent. A good knowledge of the 7x table will help with this.
This sequence of calculator games can be found in Year 3 and Year 4 Knowing Number Facts.
Calculator game: 6x table
The six times table is one of the hardest to learn, but here is another in our calculator games sequence which will help reinforce the table. Remember the idea is to choose a number on the board and then work out which number multiplied by 6 will make the chosen number.
This can be found in our Year 4 resources under Knowing Number Facts.
Free maths worksheet: Counting in steps of 25 and 50
By year 4 children should be confident enough to count on in steps of 50 or 25. This can be useful when using money or length. Here we have a straightforward free maths worksheet that looks at counting in these steps. Some of the counting on in fifties start with multiples of 50 but the later questions don’t, but children should quickly see the patterns involved.

Year 4 maths worksheet: Multiply multiples of 10
This page is an excellent illustration of how knowing ‘tables’ and understanding place value can make other maths much simpler. These questions are all multiplying multiples of ten by a single digit.
If you know that 7 x 8 = 56 then 70 x 8 can be done ‘in your head’ very quickly.
probably the hardest questions on this sheet are those set out like this:
490 x 7 = ??
The best way to approach this is to ask what times 7 makes 49? and work from there.

What’s New: Year 4 Multiplication
What have we got today? It’s the second in our multiplying by 3, 4, 6, 8 and 10 worksheets, suitable for year 4 children or those who are beginning to know their tables.
The best way to learn tables is to recite them out loud eg ’4 times 3 is 12, then shorten it to, ’4 3s are 12′, with the ultimate aim of being able to say the product for any two single digits without having to work it out.

Year 4: 3, 4, 6, 8 and 10 times tables
How well are tables known? Here is a quick sheet to see how well the 3x, 4x, 6x, 8x and 10 times tables are known. Probably the two hardest of these are the 6 times and 8 times tables and whilst it is well worth knowing that the six times table is double the 3x table and that the 8x table is double the 4x table, there is nothing to beat actually knowing all tables off by heart, so that any answer can be given just as quickly as answering the question ‘What is your name?’
Children who know their tables well will find this page very easy. If they don’t know them it can take a surprisingly long time!

Calculator game: Multiples of 4
Once children have learned the 4 times table this calculator game can be played. Set up the calculator to be a 4 times table machine by pressing 4 x x = 0 and then all you have to do to multiply a number by 4 is to type the number and press equals (don’t delete the answer before pressing the next number). Choose a number on the grid and say it out loud, then try and make that number by entering a number on the calculator and multiplying it by 4 by pressing =. If correct place a counter on the grid. Continue taking in turns with the aim of getting 4 in a row.
Complicated? Why not try the game and see just how easy it is.
Year 4 Calculations: Multiplication with words
Here we have the second page which looks at the vocabulary used for multiplication questions. This can used as a quick check to see how well the language is understood as well as how well tables are known. Terms such as ‘lots of’, ‘multiply by’, ‘times’, ‘multiplied by’ are all important to know.
This can be found in our year 4 Calculations section but there are also a lot of other multiplication pages in our Four Rules section.

Year 4 maths worksheet: Multiplication and addition
Here is another in our series of multiplication and addition, suitable for Year 4 upwards.
The rule is that multiplication should be worked out before the addition and in most of these questions that is fairly straightforward. However the questions towards the end are quite tricky.
Let’s look at 70 + ?? x 4 = 150
The best way to go about this is to go in reverse order; subtract 70 from 150 which leaves 80.
Then work out what number multiplied by 4 makes 80, which is 20.
Therefore the missing number is 20.
It is best to check this by going back to the original question; multiply 20 by 4 = 80 and then add 80 and 70 = 150, making the statement true.
Many children will find these very difficult to work out as they require several steps.
