Circles
How to use this worksheet
- Put the pencil on the dot at the left edge of the circle, go down and around to the right, up and back to the dot: counterclockwise, the way c, a, o and d are written.
- Close every circle exactly where it began, then lift the pencil and leave a small gap before the next one.
- Each circle should sit on the bottom line and reach almost to the top line, just like the model.
What this worksheet teaches
Drawing a closed circle of a set size needs smooth rotation of the fingers and wrist and a precise finish at the starting point. The counterclockwise direction matters: c, a, d, g, o and q and the numbers 0, 6 and 9 are formed that way, so practicing it now prevents circles drawn the wrong way later. At 6–8 the goal is consistency: equal circles on the same line with even gaps, just like letters.
Play idea
Bubble row: each circle is a soap bubble. After a row, your child draws a tiny shine mark in the roundest bubble, and any bubble that 'popped' because it did not close is a reminder to close the next ones carefully.
