How to use this worksheet
- On the model the neck curves up to a small head with an eye, the body rests on two pairs of legs and the tail trails on the ground; the freehand dinosaurs need all of these.
- Each row has five dashed dinosaurs after the model and then four or five empty spaces; remind your child that from the tail the line climbs to the neck first, and glance back at the model if the tails get longer and longer.
What this worksheet teaches
The dashed half shows the order of this long outline, and the empty half tests whether your child can repeat it (tail, neck, head, legs) at the same size, with even gaps between dinosaurs.
Play idea
Dino family: your child gives each dinosaur drawn alone a role in the family, like grandpa, mom or baby, and adds a nest with eggs at the end of the row.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Should my child copy the solid model or the last dashed dinosaur?
The last dashed one, because it sits right next to the empty space and has exactly the size to copy; the solid model at the start is for checking the order of the line.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 4–5 — after five dashed dinosaurs per row the child finishes each row alone, a good test of whether they remember the order: tail, neck, head, legs.
What if the dinosaurs drawn without dashes lose their legs or stretch out very long?
Count the legs on the model together (two blocks under the body) and compare widths: each new dinosaur should fit in the same space as the dashed ones before it.
