First Mental Arithmetic provides graded questions that develop children's essential maths skills.

A downwards extension of the bestseller Mental Arithmetic, it comprises three books for Year 1 (Books 1 to 3) and three for Year 2 (Books 4 to 6).

Books 4 to 6 are also suitable for some older children.

All the books are ideal for one-per-term use, and may be used flexibly for individual, paired, group or whole-class maths practice, or maths recovery or homework.

Separate books of answers are available and a table enabling you to obtain an indication of a child's National Curriculum level, using his or her average First Mental Arithmetic session score, may be downloaded from this website. With accessible text and maths glossaries to consolidate children's understanding, First Mental Arithmetic encourages a disciplined approach to maths.

The later books provide Achievement charts, which help children to monitor their own progress, together with more intensive practice that prepares them for Key Stage 2.
