How to use this worksheet
- Show your child the hook on the model: a tall straight stick going down and a little curl at the bottom that turns left and comes back up, like a J.
- Start each hook at the top of its dashed line, pull the pencil straight down and let it curl left and up at the bottom; finish one row, then rest the hand.
What this worksheet teaches
Big dashed hooks let a small hand pull one long line down and roll it into a curve without stopping — the same movement later used for the letter j.
Play idea
Go fishing: draw a wavy water line under the row and a small fish hanging from every traced hook, then count the catch together.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Does the curl have to be perfect?
Not at this age — on the dashed hooks what counts is that the line bends and ends pointing up, not how round the bend is.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 3–4 — the big hooks are dashed along all four rows, so a young child practices the down-and-curl movement without having to remember the shape.
What if the pencil slips off the dashed hook?
Trace one hook together, hand over hand, saying down, down, curl as you go; a hook that turns up at the end counts even if the stem wobbles.
