Dragon Maths 4 is a write-on student workbook that contains a full mathematics programme for most Year 6 students. It gives comprehensive coverage of work at mathematics curriculum Level 3. It guides students through the Advanced Additive/Early Multiplicative Stage (stage 6) of the Number Framework.

Each chapter is based on a strand of the New Zealand Mathematics and Statistics Curriculum document. The number strand has been allocated 4 chapters (140 pages) to adequately cover all the numeracy strategies currently being taught in primary schools. A revision test is provided at the end of each chapter and there are problem-solving chapters.
