Astro's Workbook, Space Mission — Large Activity Book CE2 (Year 4/Grade 3)

“Do I have to?” The workbook stays in the school bag, the sighs start before the first page, and one more evening of practice turns into a negotiation. At 8–9, your child can do so much more… if only they felt like opening the book.

You would love to help with times tables, spelling or a tricky word problem, but after a long day nobody has the energy for dull, grey worksheets. So practice gets put off, and the gaps quietly grow.

With Astro, the little robot explorer, it no longer feels like homework. Your child becomes a space pilot: they fill in their explorer card, open the mission map and set off from planet to planet. One page, one mission, one star to colour on the progress chart. And along the way, they practise the whole year’s essentials.

What’s inside this workbook

• 95 large A4 pages in full colour, laid out like a real space logbook, with 58 one-page missions and 12 bonus games (space-station maze, word search, colour by calculation, sudoku and more).
• Maths: numbers up to 9,999, place value, rounding, column addition, subtraction and multiplication, times tables 2 to 9, sharing and division, mental maths, one- and two-step word problems.
• Geometry and measurement: 2D and 3D shapes, right angles, line symmetry, grids, length, mass, capacity and time.
• English, written for English-speaking children (not translated word for word): sentences, nouns, verbs and adjectives, singular and plural, to/too/two, their/there/they’re, your/you’re, its/it’s, past, present and future, be, have, go, do and say.
• Reading, writing and discovery: short space stories, a letter to write, your own explorer’s story, the Solar System, the Earth and the Moon.
• For independent progress: a note for parents, answers at the back, a progress chart and a space explorer certificate to earn at the end.

Who is it for?

• Children aged 8 to 9 (Year 4 in the UK, Grade 3 in the US). The maths follows the French CE2 curriculum; the English pages are native English.
• Parents who want short, focused sessions (15–20 minutes, one mission a day) without having to invent the exercises.
• Young dreamers who love rockets, robots and aliens, and learn best while playing.

Imagine, in a few weeks…

Your child pulls out the workbook on their own to find out where Astro goes next. They tick off another mission, colour one more star, and finally tell you the difference between their and there without thinking twice. The day they fill in their space explorer certificate, they will have completed a whole year of practice, and they will be proud of it.
