About the Reception Maths Shapes & Patterns Workbook (Ages 4-5)

If your Reception child is getting to grips with shapes and patterns, the Reception Maths Shapes & Patterns Workbook (Ages 4-5) from Schofield and Sims offers a clear, structured way to build their confidence in recognising colours, shapes and simple patterns. Part of the trusted Get Set Early Years series, this workbook bridges the gap between play and formal learning, so your four- or five-year-old arrives at school ready to tackle maths with enthusiasm.

Activity page showing triangles and rectangles identification tasks
Inside page showing activities to find and colour triangles, then count rectangles in everyday scenes

Each activity is designed to be engaging and motivating, with friendly illustrations that encourage children to explore 2D and 3D shapes, repeating patterns and symmetry in a way that feels like fun rather than formal work. The workbook includes clear instructions, key vocabulary for every topic and helpful notes for parents, so you can support your child without needing to be a maths expert. Because the activities link shapes to the world around them—bunting, trains, buildings—your child learns to spot patterns in everyday life, making abstract concepts feel real and relevant.

Symmetry exercises with leaves and Russian dolls
Symmetry activities where children match halves of leaves and complete drawings of Russian dolls

Regular practice with this workbook helps your Reception pupil develop shape recognition, counting skills and an understanding of symmetry—all essential for the early maths curriculum. You'll notice their ability to spot patterns and describe shapes grows steadily, giving them a solid foundation for Year 1. The workbook is a physical product that ships to your door, ready to slot into homework time or quiet play, and it complements classroom learning without overwhelming busy families.

This workbook suits any Reception child who is ready to move beyond play-based activities and start building early maths skills in a structured, supportive way. Whether your child is curious about shapes or needs extra practice to feel confident, the clear layout and engaging tasks make independent learning manageable—and give you peace of mind that they're covering the right topics at the right pace.

  • Covers 2D and 3D shapes, repeating patterns, symmetry and colour recognition for ages 4–5
  • Friendly illustrations and motivating activities keep young learners engaged and enjoying maths
  • Key vocabulary boxes and parent notes in every section to support confident home learning
