About the English Activity Book for Ages 4-5 (Reception)
The English Activity Book for Ages 4-5 (Reception) gives your child a bright, engaging start to reading, writing and phonics. Published by CGP, this workbook covers the core English skills Reception pupils need to build confidence with letters, sounds, simple sentences and story comprehension, all aligned to the early stages of the English National Curriculum.
Inside, colourful activities introduce phonics step by step, practice handwriting formation, and develop early reading comprehension through fun exercises and friendly characters. Each page uses clear explanations and visual prompts to keep four- and five-year-olds interested, while full answers at the back let you check progress quickly and celebrate every success together. The mix of tracing, colouring, matching and simple writing tasks means children stay active and motivated, building the literacy foundations they'll carry forward into Year 1.
By working through stories, letter formation and word recognition in short, achievable sessions, your child gains the skills and self-belief to tackle classroom literacy with ease. The book supports home learning without adding pressure, giving you a straightforward way to reinforce what's taught at school and spot any areas that need a little extra time. Because every answer is included, you'll always know your Reception learner is on the right track.
