I've been using Exam Ninja books for around five years to help my nine-year-old daughter with her schooling. We buy a set for each year and my daughter works her way through them, a little each day, with my assistance. These are an excellent resource for boosting a child's learning journey and supporting the school curriculum.

About the Reception Phonics Workbook Pack (Ages 4-5)

Reception Phonics Workbook Pack (Ages 4-5) gives your child everything they need to build confident reading and spelling skills from the very start of their school journey. Designed for children aged 4–5 in Reception, this complete set of five workbooks follows the Letters and Sounds programme step by step, covering Phase 1 right through to Phase 4. Each book is packed with colourful characters and engaging activities that keep young learners motivated, while parents benefit from a clear, structured path through all the essential phonics phases taught in the English National Curriculum.

The pack works as a complete system: Book 1 introduces Phase 1 and the first consonants, Book 2 expands the alphabet and adds tricky words, Book 3 moves into Phase 3 digraphs and simple sentences, Book 4 completes Phase 3 with trigraphs, and Book 5 tackles consonant clusters in Phase 4. Every workbook uses the same friendly approach—children segment sounds, trace letters, match pictures to words, and write in full sentences—so your child builds skills gradually without sudden jumps in difficulty. Full answers are included in each book, making it straightforward to check progress and support your child at home without second-guessing.

Inside Book 5: consonant clusters, tricky words, and progressive activities

By the time your child completes this pack, they will be able to blend and segment confidently, recognise common tricky words at a glance, and write simple sentences using the phonics skills expected at the end of Reception. The structured progression mirrors what teachers use in class, so home practice reinforces school learning rather than confusing it. Parents appreciate the clear layout, the absence of guesswork, and the way each workbook builds directly on the last, creating a smooth and reassuring path through early literacy.

Book 2 activity: robot-talk and word frames teach spelling in a playful way

This pack suits any Reception child learning to read at home, whether you want to reinforce classroom phonics, support a child who needs extra practice, or simply give your son or daughter a head start. The books are published by CGP and work equally well alongside school phonics lessons or as a standalone home programme. The set is a physical product and will be posted to you, so you can start whenever it arrives. No prep, no printing, no decisions about what to teach next—just open Book 1 and follow the pages in order.

  • Five complete workbooks covering Phases 1 to 4 of the Letters and Sounds programme for Reception
  • Engaging activities with colourful characters, word frames, tricky words, and sentence writing
  • Full answers included in every book for quick, confident checking at home
  • Progressive structure that mirrors National Curriculum expectations and builds skills step by step
  • Physical workbooks posted to your door—no downloads, no guesswork, just open and start

Perfect! Goes so well with what she’s learning in school ! Makes life easier with home schooling thank you so much!

Nawrot Nina

Super company. Very quick delivery.

Michelle Jones

Excellent resource to support phonics learning. Its linked to the letters and sounds phases and sounds and skills are developed as you work through. I have a 5yo who is very secure with the phonics she has learnt at school and is keen to continue developing her skills while she's learning at home. This book allows us to practice a good mix of skills (blending, segmenting, tricky words, sentence building, new sounds etc) and is working really well for us alongside more game based resources like the phonics play website.
