Waves
How to use this worksheet
- Show your child the solid model wave at the left of the row and draw it in the air together first.
- Start on the dot and follow the arrow to the right: up to the top line, down to the bottom line, again and again.
- One row at a time is enough, and a break between rows is completely fine at this age.
- The mascot in the bottom right corner is the reward at the end; the last row stops just before it.
What this worksheet teaches
At 3-4 the goal is not a neat wave but a relaxed hand that keeps moving in one direction. Four large rows are a manageable amount for a short attention span, and the full dashed guide means the child always knows where the line goes next. Tracing curves between two lines teaches the eyes to steer the hand, and coloring the mascot afterward gives the fingers extra work with a crayon.
Play idea
Make it a sea story: the pencil is a little fish swimming over the waves to reach the mascot. After each row the fish rests, and at the end your child colors the mascot in any colors they like.
