About This Worksheet
4 combines a slanting line, a sleeping line and a standing line, so it takes a little more planning than 1 or 7. Page 1 gives your child a full page of 4s to practise the shape on its own.
Page 2 mixes 1, 7 and 4 in one row, so your child switches between three different shapes. Each row starts with a model number on a maths block grid to copy.
Skills Your Child Practises
- Writing the number 4
- Reviewing 1 and 7
- Switching between different number shapes
- Neat sizing within grid boxes
How to Use This Worksheet
- Quickly review 1 and 7 from Week 4 before starting.
- Show your child the three strokes that make a 4.
- Complete the page of 4s first, then the mixed page.
- Say each number aloud as your child writes it.
- Move to Week 6 when 4 is written confidently.
What’s Next?
Move on to Week 6 – Practice 6, 1, 7 and 4, which adds the number 6.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 4 harder than 1 and 7?
Usually a little, because it has three strokes. Extra practice on page 1 helps before mixing it with other numbers.
Why review 1 and 7 again?
Mixing new and known numbers keeps earlier learning fresh and helps your child switch between shapes.
How many pages should we do a day?
With only 2 pages, you can do one a day or both in one short session.
What comes after Week 5?
Week 6 adds the number 6 and mixes it with 1, 7 and 4.
