How to use this worksheet
- The handle is the tall part and the head is only a short flare at the bottom, so when the dashes end, draw the handle first — its length sets the size of the whole flashlight.
- The dashed flashlights fill about half of every row; after them your child keeps the handle long and the head wide, finishing each flashlight with its button line.
What this worksheet teaches
Half tracing moves the child from following to repeating: the dashed flashlights show the height, and the freehand ones must copy it and keep an even gap. Holding a vertical line straight and matching its length several times in a row is the same control that keeps letters like l, t and h upright later.
Play idea
Switch the flashlights on: your child picks the freehand flashlight with the straightest handle in each row and draws short rays of light shining out of its wide end.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Where does my child start a freehand flashlight?
At the top left corner, like the dot on the model: across the top, down the long side, out to the wide end, back up the other side, then the button — the same path every time.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 4–5 — tracing the first half of each row shows the size of the flashlight, then the child draws the second half alone.
What if the freehand flashlights get shorter and shorter?
Have your child compare each new flashlight with the dashed ones at the start of the row; matching the handle length first usually fixes the whole flashlight.
