How to use this worksheet

  • Before drawing, ask your child to describe the model: where the start dot sits, which end has the claw and how the handle leaves the head.
  • Plan the strokes — head with claw first, then the two handle lines, then the short line closing the end of the handle — draw one hammer and compare it with the model before drawing the next.

What this worksheet teaches

Drawing a slanted figure from a model is harder than drawing an upright one: the child has to keep the angle in mind while planning each stroke. Six rows show whether the head and handle stay at right angles and the handle lines stay parallel, a good check of visual planning at school age.

Play idea

Hold a hammer inspection: your child picks the best hammer in each row, marks it with a star and explains what makes it better — a straighter handle, a sharper claw or a better angle.

Questions and answers

Questions from parents

What shape is the claw of the hammer?
A small pointed hook at the left end of the head, bending down; it is drawn in the same line as the head, before lifting the pencil for the handle.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 6–8 — after one solid and one dashed hammer the row is empty, so the child rebuilds the slanted head, claw and handle from the model alone.
How long does this worksheet take?
Around 15 minutes for six rows; if the handles begin to bend, a short break after three rows helps more than finishing in a hurry.
