Climbers · ages 10–12
Free Year 6 maths games
Usually ages 10–11 · Topics follow the National curriculum in England: mathematics programmes of study
Year 6 is the last year of primary school, and children in England sit the Key Stage 2 SATs in May. The national curriculum covers numbers to 10,000,000, long division, the order of operations, all four operations with fractions, ratio and percentages, simple algebra, and the mean.
Number Quest's Climbers trail practises fractions, decimals, percent, multiply and divide, area and word problems. The Scholars trail (ages 13–15) adds order of operations, ratios, solving for x and negative numbers for children ready to stretch.
