How to use this worksheet

  • At the dark dot on the bottom line, go up the slope to the tip, down the other slope to the bottom line and back along the flat base to the start.
  • The next triangle begins where the last one's base ended, so the triangles touch at their bottom corners.
  • Trace seven to nine triangles in each row, lifting the crayon whenever the hand needs a rest.

What this worksheet teaches

Each triangle combines two slanted lines, one going up and one coming down, with a straight line along the bottom, and it ends where it began. Copying a triangle is typically expected only around five, so at 3–4 full dashes are the right support: the child feels the three corners and the closing of the shape long before drawing one freehand. The up-and-down slants are the same strokes as in the capitals A, V, W and M.

Play idea

Mountain range: after tracing, add snowcaps to the tips in the first row, pine trees at the foot of the second and a tiny climber on one peak. Count the mountains in each row together.

Questions and answers

Questions from parents

Where does each triangle start?
At its bottom-left corner on the lower guide line; from there the line goes up to the tip.
My child forgets the bottom line. What helps?
Say "up, down, and home": the last part, back along the base, closes the triangle.
Why do the triangles touch?
They share corners on the bottom line, so the row looks like a chain of mountains and the child moves straight on to the next one.
