This is a prewriting activity sheet designed to help you practice controlling your pencil and making smooth lines. Here is how to complete the task:
1.
Look at the hot air balloon: The main part of the balloon (the big round top) has several rows of dotted lines inside it.
2.
Trace the lines: Take your pencil and carefully trace over each dotted line. Try to stay right on top of the dots without going outside the lines.
* Some lines are straight diagonals (slanted lines).
* Some lines look like waves or bumps.
3.
Follow the pattern: Start from the left side and move to the right, or follow the direction that feels most natural for your hand.
4.
Finish the picture: Once you have traced all the dotted lines inside the balloon, you can color the rest of the picture if you want to!
The goal is to make your hand steady so you are ready for writing letters later.
Final Answer: Trace the dotted lines inside the hot air balloon with your pencil.
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of pencil control worksheets.
