How to use this worksheet
- Every elephant in the row is the same side view, with a big body, two thick legs, a large ear, a curled trunk, an eye and a short tail, drawn at the traced size.
- Across the five rows the dashes cover about the first half; after that your child draws the elephants alone, checking the solid model for where the ear, eye and tail go.
What this worksheet teaches
The traced elephants fix the size and path of the outline, and drawing on alone teaches your child to keep that size and leave room between the elephants.
Play idea
Lead the herd: your child gives each freehand elephant a name and tells which one leads the others to the water.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
How much room does a freehand elephant need?
About as much as one dashed elephant from trunk tip to tail; a small dot where the last tail ended shows where the next trunk can start.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 5–6 — the dashed elephants show the size and the path of the outline, and the child finishes each row freehand; a step between tracing and drawing a big animal alone.
What if the freehand elephants lose their trunk curl or their legs get uneven?
Compare with the solid elephant: the trunk ends in a small curl, and the two legs are square blocks of the same height. Fix the trunk first, then even out the legs.
