Maths Quiz - Number Sequences (Year 3) (Questions)

In KS2 Maths, we explore number sequences. It starts in Year Three with simple patterns, like going up by 2, 3, 10, or 100. We also spot odd and even number patterns.

Understanding number sequences is like finding hidden patterns in numbers. Look at 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 – they go up by 1 each time. The pattern! So, if we add 1 to 5, we get 6. Can you spot patterns too?

How good are you at finding patterns in number sequences? Test your skills in this quiz for 7-8 year olds!
