Starting Class 1 is an exciting step, and a little daily practice makes it easier. This free printable worksheet set gives young learners a gentle mix of numbers, letters and shapes on four simple pages.

Children count pictures and write the number, match capital letters with small letters, trace numbers 1 to 20 and colour basic shapes. The pictures are big, the lines are wide, and every page can be finished in about ten minutes.

Print as many copies as you like for home practice, holiday revision or classroom worksheet time.

How to play

Download the free PDF and print the pages on A4 paper. Printing on one side keeps the pages easy to colour.
Give your child a pencil, an eraser and some crayons. Read the instruction at the top of each page together.
Let the child finish one page at a time, counting out loud and saying each letter sound while working.
Check the answers together, praise the effort, and keep the finished pages in a folder to revise later.

These Class 1 practice pages build the early skills children need in their first school year. Counting pictures and writing the matching number strengthens one-to-one counting and number sense up to 20. Matching capital and small letters supports letter recognition, which is the first step to reading simple words. Tracing numbers develops pencil control, correct stroke order and neat handwriting. Colouring and naming shapes introduces basic geometry vocabulary such as circle, square, triangle and rectangle. Short, regular sessions work best at this age, so try one page a day and keep the mood light, friendly and full of praise.

Frequently asked questions

Are these worksheets suitable for a 4 to 5 year old starting Class 1?

Yes. The pages use large pictures, wide tracing lines and short instructions, so children aged 4 to 5 can work with very little help. If your child is still learning numbers, sit beside them and count the pictures together first.

Do I need to pay or sign up to download these printables?

No. The worksheets are completely free to download and print. You can print as many copies as you need for your own children or for your classroom, and reuse them for revision during holidays.

How many worksheets should my child do in one day?

One page a day is enough at this age. Young children focus best for about ten to fifteen minutes. Finishing one page well and feeling proud is far better than rushing through several pages at once.

What should my child use to complete the pages?

A sharpened pencil and an eraser are enough for the counting, matching and tracing pages. Keep crayons or colour pencils ready for the shapes page, as colouring also helps strengthen the small hand muscles used for writing.
