How to use this worksheet
- Start at the dark dot at the bottom of the left side. Go straight up, round over the top and straight down the right side.
- Add the feet: a short line across the bottom of each side.
- Leave a gap and start the next horseshoe.
What this worksheet teaches
Straight up, round over, straight down is the movement of n and h, with straight sides that must stay parallel. The short feet teach how to end a shape with a small, neat horizontal line, like the little bars at the bottom of some printed letters. With three strokes per horseshoe, your child also has to remember the order and place each foot exactly under its side.
Play idea
Lucky horseshoes: your child counts the horseshoes they drew alone and makes a wish for each one, then draws a horse at the end of the row.
