Whale Squiggles

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is designed for children to practice their fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. It features a dotted outline of a whale and some wavy lines, along with small shapes like circles and half-circles. The task is to trace over these dotted lines and shapes using a writing instrument. Once the tracing is complete, children can also color in the picture.

The main educational objective of this worksheet is to help young learners develop control over writing utensils. It encourages the practice of following patterns and creating smooth lines, which is a precursor to learning how to write letters and numbers. Additionally, it introduces children to basic elements of art and design, such as the outline of a simple figure and repetitive patterns. By coloring the picture, students also engage their creativity and learn about staying within lines.
