How to use this worksheet
- Every whistle has the same straight-line outline: a pointed tip on the left, a boxy body and a small mouthpiece on the right; the freehand ones need the same size and gap as the dashed ones.
- The dashes reach about halfway along each row; after that your child copies the whistle alone, keeping the mouthpiece on the right and the pointed tip on the left.
What this worksheet teaches
Halfway along the row the dashes end, and your child keeps the same corners, the same slant at the tip and the same spacing without any help.
Play idea
Play referee: after each freehand whistle you blow a pretend whistle, and your child checks whether the new one is as big as the last dashed whistle.
Questions and answers
Questions from parents
Why is the whistle made only of straight lines?
Straight edges are easy to compare: if a freehand whistle has a crooked corner, your child can spot it next to the dashed ones and fix the next one.
What age is this worksheet for?
Children aged 5–6 — the first half of each row is traced and the second half is freehand, a good test of keeping straight edges and corners in place.
What if the mouthpiece ends up on the wrong side?
Ask your child to start each whistle at the tip on the left, where the dark dot is on the model; the mouthpiece then always lands on the right.
