Fluent In Five Arithmetic Pack | Weeks 25 to 30 | Year 3

Develop your pupils’ confidence with mental and written arithmetic strategies with these Fluent in Five daily arithmetic questions for weeks 25 to 30 of Year 3.

The questions are presented as an editable PowerPoint presentation and as worksheets to improve pupils speed and accuracy with arithmetic questions.

This daily practice resource is designed to enhance speed and accuracy in maths, offering a broad range of questions that align with the KS2 maths curriculum.

With over 150 questions spread across the 6 weeks, the resource incorporates a mix of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and decimals. The questions progressively build in complexity, ensuring pupils grasp fundamental concepts before advancing.

Encourage pupils to choose whether to use a mental or written method when answering. Answers identify which would be the most efficient method for each question.

We recommend teachers integrate this resource into their daily maths lessons, or as a warm up in the afternoon. With 5 to 10 minutes a day you’ll then have a structured approach to arithmetic practice.

Teachers report faster and more accurate results on arithmetic tests as well as greater confidence and fluency.
