How to use this worksheet
- Before tracing, name the three parts of the big slanted brush together: the long handle, the metal band with its stripe and the pointed tuft of bristles at the top.
- Start at the dark dot on the solid paintbrush in each of the four rows and trace the dashed brushes from handle to bristle tip; the large size keeps the long slanted lines easy to follow.
What this worksheet teaches
Following dashes that climb on a slant trains one long, steady movement from the lower left to the upper right, and closing the two bristle curves at a single tip is a first lesson in aiming the pencil at a point.
Play idea
Pretend each traced brush has just been dipped in paint: your child names a color, adds a round splash of it next to the bristle tip and says which part of the brush would touch the paper.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Is a slanted shape too hard for a four-year-old?
Not with dashes to follow: the guide sets the angle, so your child only has to keep the pencil moving along it from the end of the handle up to the tip.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 4–5 — every large paintbrush is dashed, so your child can concentrate on long diagonal strokes and on landing the pointed tip.
What if the pencil slips off the dashes near the bristle tip?
Trace the first paintbrush together and slow down where the handle meets the metal band and at the bristle tip; long slants drift most at their ends.
