Clouds
How to use this worksheet
- Start at the dark dot on the bottom line, at the left corner of the solid cloud: bump, big bump, bump, then back along the base to close.
- Trace the dashed clouds in the same order, lifting the pencil only between clouds; each row has seven or eight.
- Finish with the mascot outline in the bottom-right corner, which is there to be colored.
What this worksheet teaches
Most pre-writing patterns are either all curves or all straight lines. A cloud needs both in one shape: three arches of different heights, then a firm straight stroke back to the start. Joining a curve to a straight line without a gap is exactly what happens in letters such as d, b, p and h. The large size gives room for the whole hand to move, so the rhythm of the bumps can be felt before the sizes get smaller.
Variation to try
Count in threes: every cloud has three bumps. With your help, your child counts the bumps in the first row, "three, six, nine", and then checks whether the next row has the same number of clouds.
