How to use this worksheet
- Study the model before drawing: count its leaves, see which way the lines on the body slant, and notice that the crown sits right in the middle of the top of the oval.
- Say the order out loud together — oval, criss-cross, crown — then trace the dashed pineapple beside the solid one and draw the rest of the row; the sheet has six rows like this.
What this worksheet teaches
Drawing from a model asks a 5–6 year old to look, plan and only then draw. The pineapple has an order that matters: the body first, so the net has something to sit in, and the crown last, so the leaves can grow from one point. Checking each new pineapple against the model trains the eye to compare shapes, the same skill used later when copying letters and words from the board.
Play idea
Spot the twin: when the page is done, your child finds the freehand pineapple that looks most like the model and explains what makes it match; then you pick one and your child says what could be closer.
