Step-by-step solution for: Grid Drawing Worksheets - www.free-for-kids.com - Worksheets Library
To solve this grid drawing problem, we need to carefully copy the lines from the small grid on the left to the large empty grid on the right. The goal is to recreate the giraffe's head exactly as it appears in the example.
Here is the step-by-step breakdown of where to draw each line segment:
1. The Horns (Ossicones)
* Left Horn: Draw a shape in square B1. It looks like a small bump or half-circle sitting on the bottom line of that square.
* Right Horn: Draw a similar small bump in square E1, also sitting on the bottom line.
2. The Top of the Head and Ears
* Start at the top of the left horn (in B1). Draw a curved line going up and to the left into square A2. This forms the left ear.
* From the top of the right horn (in E1), draw a curved line going up and to the right into square F2. This forms the right ear.
* Connect the tops of the horns with a gentle curve across squares C1 and D1.
3. The Face Outline
* Left Side: From the bottom of the left ear (around A2/B3 boundary), draw a line curving down through B3, B4, and B5.
* Right Side: From the bottom of the right ear (around F2/E3 boundary), draw a line curving down through E3, E4, and E5.
* Chin/Jaw: Connect the bottom of the left side (B5) to the bottom of the right side (E5) with a U-shaped curve that dips down into row 6. The lowest point should be in the middle of squares C6 and D6.
4. The Eyes
* Left Eye: Located in square C3. Draw an oval shape. Inside the oval, draw a smaller circle for the pupil and a dot for the highlight.
* Right Eye: Located in square D3. Draw a matching oval, pupil, and highlight.
5. The Nostrils
* Left Nostril: In square C5, near the bottom center, draw a small curved line or dot.
* Right Nostril: In square D5, near the bottom center, draw a matching small curved line or dot.
6. The Neck and Mane
* Mane: Starting from the back of the head (left side), draw a jagged, zig-zag line down the left edge of column A. It goes from A3 all the way down to A9.
* Neck Outline: Draw a line from the chin (bottom of C6/D6) down along the right side of column B and C. Specifically, go down through B7, B8, and B9. Then connect across the bottom if needed, but usually, the neck extends off the page or stops at the bottom. Looking at the sample, the neck widens slightly. Let's trace the sample neck:
* Left side of neck: Follows the mane in column A.
* Right side of neck: Starts at the jawline in E5/F6. Curves down through F7, F8, and F9.
* Bottom: Connects A9 to F9 roughly, or just lets the lines hang. The sample shows the neck going down to row 9.
7. Spots on the Neck
* Copy the irregular blob shapes from the sample grid onto your new grid in the corresponding squares on the neck (columns A, B, C, D, E, F in rows 6-9).
Summary of Key Coordinates to Check:
* Horns: B1, E1
* Ears: A2, F2
* Eyes: C3, D3
* Nose/Mouth area: C5, D5, C6, D6
* Mane: Column A, rows 3-9
* Neck Right Edge: Column F, rows 6-9
By following these coordinates and shapes, you will successfully complete the grid drawing.
Final Answer:
The task is to replicate the giraffe drawing on the blank grid.
1. Draw horns in B1 and E1.
2. Draw ears in A2 and F2.
3. Draw eyes in C3 and D3.
4. Draw nostrils in C5 and D5.
5. Draw the jawline curving through B5 to E5 and dipping into C6/D6.
6. Draw the mane as a zig-zag line down column A (rows 3-9).
7. Draw the right side of the neck down column F (rows 6-9).
8. Fill in the spots on the neck (rows 6-9) to match the pattern.
