Quantitative Reasoning, Number Patterns & Sequence Practice | Level A
CAT4 Number Series Mastery Workbook – Grade 3 / Year 4
A focused number series workbook designed to help students develop quantitative reasoning, number pattern recognition, sequence skills and logical thinking through CAT4-style practice.
CAT4 Number Series Mastery Workbook
Help your child strengthen quantitative reasoning and number pattern skills with this focused Number Series workbook for Grade 3 / Year 4 learners.
Students examine sequences of numbers, identify the rule connecting the terms and choose the option that correctly continues the sequence. The questions encourage students to look for numerical patterns rather than simply calculate individual answers.
The source workbook is labelled Level A – Year 3 (Term 2–3) / early Year 4 transition and contains 1 section with 25 questions.
Why Parents Choose This Workbook
Develops the ability to analyse numerical relationships and sequences.
Helps students identify rules and repeated patterns in number sequences.
Builds confidence working with numbers, operations and sequences.
Encourages students to identify a numerical rule and apply it accurately.
What's Inside?
Each question presents a number sequence with a missing term. Students identify the rule governing the sequence and select the answer option that correctly continues the pattern.
Section 1: Number Series
Identify sequences where numbers are multiplied by a consistent factor.
Recognise sequences formed by adding a fixed amount each time.
Identify sequences that decrease by a consistent amount.
Follow sequences where two different operations are used repeatedly.
Recognise sequences based on consecutive whole numbers squared.
Identify patterns that combine multiplication with addition.
Apply numerical rules to determine the missing term in a sequence.
The questions require students to examine the numbers carefully, identify the operation or sequence rule and choose the correct continuation from options A–E.
Skills Developed
Understand relationships between numbers and apply numerical rules.
Identify repeated operations and numerical structures.
Develop confidence working with sequences and numerical relationships.
Determine the rule that controls a sequence.
Use numerical information to determine the missing term.
Check each number carefully before selecting an answer.

How to Use This Workbook
- Read the complete number sequence carefully.
- Compare the numbers to look for a repeated operation or pattern.
- Check whether the sequence uses addition, subtraction or multiplication.
- Look for alternating operations when a single operation does not fit.
- Consider whether the sequence follows a square-number pattern.
- Review options A–E and eliminate numbers that do not follow the rule.
- Select the number that correctly continues the sequence.
For best results, encourage students to explain the rule they identified before selecting an answer. This helps develop reasoning and reduces reliance on guessing.
