How to use this worksheet
- Study the model before drawing: the tower narrows evenly toward the top, the lamp room is a small box with a round roof, the beam spreads out to the right and the window sits halfway up.
- A solid lighthouse and one dashed lighthouse open each of the six rows; before the empty part, let your child point to where the lamp room sits on the tower.
What this worksheet teaches
Drawing the lighthouse from the model means planning a stroke order for five parts and judging two slants by eye so that they meet the lamp room at the right width. Stopping after each lighthouse to compare it with the model teaches children to check their own work, which pays off later when copying words and numbers.
Play idea
Make a coastline map: your child adds a harbor, rocks and a ship to the page, gives each lighthouse a name and tells which one guides the ship home.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
What should my child plan before drawing each lighthouse?
The order and the height: tower sides first, so the top ends up narrower than the base, then the lamp room, dome, beam and window; deciding the height first keeps all six rows even.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 5–6 — after the solid and the dashed lighthouse there is no guide, so the child must slant both sides evenly and fit the lamp room, dome and beam on top.
How long does this worksheet take?
About 15 minutes for six rows of lighthouses; if the beams start to look like scribbles, stop after three rows and finish the coastline the next day.
