How to use this worksheet
- Look at the solid model first and plan the stroke order: the round glass and its narrowing neck in one line, then the small trapezoid base set apart below, and the two short rays standing free beside the glass.
- Your child draws eight or nine bulbs per row alone; ask them to finish the glass and neck in one line from the left side, then add the base underneath and the two rays last.
What this worksheet teaches
With no dashes to follow, your child plans each bulb before drawing and then compares it with the model: does the curve narrow evenly into the neck, is the base a separate shape, and do the rays begin just off the glass?
Play idea
Play inventors: in every row your child circles the bulb that looks most like the model and tells you what new invention it could light up.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
How can my child check a freehand bulb?
Put one finger on the model and one on the new bulb and compare: a round glass rather than a pointed one, a neck before the base, rays apart from the glass; fixing one of these per row is enough.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 5–6 — six medium rows with only the model and one dashed bulb show whether your child can repeat a round shape narrowing into a neck, with the small base and rays in the right places.
How long does this worksheet take?
About 15 minutes; the bulbs are quick, but if the glass gets pointed or lopsided after a few rows, a short break works better than rushing through the rest.
