What 9-Year-Olds Should Know in Maths

A nine-year-old is typically working through Year 4 or Year 5 content. MathCraft adapts to your child's actual level, ensuring they're always practising the right topics.

Nine-year-olds can handle genuine multi-step problems and are developing the reasoning skills needed for fractions and early algebra. This is the ideal age for MathCraft — old enough to engage with the RPG mechanics, young enough to still be captivated by the companion and island building.
