Remembrance Day is observed on Wednesday of this week. If there are 700 children at Gill’s school, and 12% of them have some medals at home, awarded to a family member, how many children have valour medals at home?

Why 400+ schools
What a whole-school licence includes
Every teacher, every class
One subscription is copyright-free within the school. Print as many copies as you have students.
Four levels, one topic
Each week's stories written four ways, so a mixed class works on the same subject at four levels of challenge.
Answers, separately
Every sheet comes with answers on its own page, so the teacher controls the reveal.
Saturday evening, every week
Fresh in the maths coordinator's inbox before Monday, for the whole term.
Order on invoice
Prefer a purchase order?
Most schools pay on invoice. Send us the school's details and a purchase-order number on the order form, and Robin sends the invoice now or early in the new school year, whichever suits the office. Nothing is charged online.
Renew for 2027
Book the year, and never miss a Saturday
A school-year subscription covers all four terms. One renewal for the school and the same four levels arriving every Saturday of 2027, with no re-ordering each term.
2027 prices are confirmed with your invoice. For a whole school it works out at about $25 a week.

What teachers say
Matharoo — positive maths indeed!
The students really look forward to and enjoy their weekly problem solving adventures. Not only do they enjoy the challenges and the activities, it has really made a difference towards their degree of engagement and practical understanding of what real world maths involves. Many thanks!
— Maria T.
Powerful maths teaching
Matharoo worksheets are a huge part of our resources and strategies towards making a difference in this area. Each teacher uses the worksheets differently. I personally have used your sheets EVERY Monday. I explicitly teach each question.
— Jane W.
Matharoo really delivers
Thank you for this year’s amazing work. My teachers and students have thoroughly enjoyed them… and I have enjoyed working on building the ‘Understand Operations’ part of our numeracy programmes.

Questions
The ones we get asked
Are answers to the worksheets supplied?
Yes. Each worksheet comes with answers supplied, but on a separate sheet, to allow teachers to control release of answers.
When does the week's worksheet change to the new worksheet?
On each Saturday, the previous worksheet is withdrawn and replaced by the new, freshly-written worksheet.
How do you receive the weekly worksheet?
The worksheet is emailed to a subscriber on the Saturday of each weekend, ready to be used during the following school week.
How can teachers best use these worksheets?
They are designed to be incredibly flexible in the classroom. Teachers can specify which worksheet should be tackled by each student within a class, so every student reaches a level of success within their own skill range, along with a level of challenge.
How are students weak in mathematics catered for?
The mid-school worksheet provides ample opportunity for weaker students to achieve some level of success, without challenging them unnecessarily. Success is vital to this group of students.
How are gifted children catered for?
Gifted children will find the whole Extension worksheet worthwhile, and challenging. These questions are considerably more demanding.
What is the annual subscription cost?
It depends on whether you are ordering for your school, for yourself as a teacher, or as a parent. Schools: the 4-level annual subscription works out to just $27 per week total for your entire school ($1,080 + GST for the 2027 school year, not per student). Teachers: one level works out to about $6 a week for your entire class. Parents: one level works out to about $5 a week.
Can every teacher in the school use the sheets?
Yes. Subscriptions for primary schools are copyright-free within the school, meaning every teacher can copy and use them.
