Reception English Worksheets and Workbooks Age 4-5
Ensure Early Academic Success with Reception English Worksheets and Reception Workbooks
Reception can be a challenging – but exciting – time. For many kids, this is the most time they've spent away from home and their parents on a regular basis. For all kids, this is a time of intense learning and growth. They will continue to practise their letters and sounds as they gain new vocabulary, improve their handwriting, and start communicating about their feelings more effectively.
Mrs Wordsmith has a variety of resources that are perfect for this transitional time, including reception English worksheets, reception workbooks, books, and a card game. These resources are aligned with guidance in the UK National Curriculum. Some of the resources described on this page are appropriate for other age groups as well, so you may have seen them before.
For kids who are still mastering their ABCs, our I Can Be a Butterfly handwriting worksheets can provide extra support. These resources combine a hilarious story with letter-writing practice pages to teach the alphabet and handwriting – key skills for beginning writers. The best reception year worksheets are ones that make kids want to keep turning the page, and we design our resources with this in mind.
For more reception worksheets, check out Foolproof Phonics Part 1, the first part of a step-by-step programme that takes kids through the different levels of phonics learning. This programme familiarises them with all the terms they need to know and is based on systematic synthetic phonics, which introduces the most common sound-letter correspondences. This knowledge of sound-letter correspondences is key to successful reading instruction.
Take a break from reception English worksheets with our Blah Blah Blah Phonics Card Game, and kids will be laughing and jumping up and down while they continue to build their foundational literacy skills. Simple to play at home or in the classroom, the game features 200 cards – covering 40 key sound-letter correspondences – to help kids become more confident readers.
Not all words are easy to sound out using phonics. That's why we created sight word worksheets for our Foolproof Sight Words printable reception workbook. This workbook covers 200 important high-frequency words through colouring activities and puzzles, and is composed of reception worksheets pdfs that are easy to print at home. High-frequency words are common words that experts recommend kids memorise by sight. You can get more practice with them in our See It! Stick It! Sight Words sticker books: reception workbooks with a colourful interactive twist.
Beyond reception worksheets and reception workbooks, you can expand your child’s vocabulary with our My Epic Life books. Vocabulary is a strong predictor of future academic success, so it's never too early to start introducing kids to new words. These books are full of vocabulary kids need to express themselves, and encourage bite-sized learning: using short, highly focused content based on one topic at a time. Studies suggest that bite-sized learning is up to 90% more effective than cramming a lot of words in one go. Reviewing a few pages of these books each night is the perfect way to spark conversations that will help reinforce new words.
For a bit of everything, our "Colossal English" reception workbook covers a whole year of English learning! What a great way to simplify the hunt for worksheets for 4-5 year olds.
