How to use this worksheet
- The pattern is the letter S: a curve to the left at the top, a gentle crossing through the middle and a curve to the right at the bottom.
- Each row opens with a solid S and one dashed S; before drawing the rest, ask your child to show where the S begins and to keep all the S shapes the same height.
What this worksheet teaches
S is two curves in opposite directions joined in one movement — direct preparation for writing the letter s and the number 5.
Play idea
Turn every S into a snake: add eyes and a tongue, then hiss together — “sss”.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Which end of the S comes first?
The top right, just like writing the letter — first curve left, then down and to the right.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 4–5 — after one solid and one dashed S, the child draws the large S shapes alone, which shows whether the double curve is already secure.
How long does this worksheet take?
About 10 minutes for the five rows of large S shapes; if the curves start to flatten, stop after two or three rows and do the rest after a break.
