Description
A free starter kit for the very first writing skills: 8 pre-writing strokes, from straight lines to triangles, presented in the order most children learn them. Friendly farm animals lead each dotted path, and every page comes in color and in black and white.
INSIDE THE KIT
► A poster showing all 8 strokes
► 8 trace-then-draw pages: vertical line, horizontal line, circle, cross, diagonal lines, square, X, and triangle
► A progress tracker and a Super Stroke Star certificate
► A Teacher Guide with simple tips and approximate ages
► Color and black and white versions of every page
► 29 pages, US Letter, 8.5 x 11 inches (for A4, choose Fit to Page)
WHAT MAKES IT WORK
Each page pairs a thick dotted path with a green start dot and open boxes for drawing the stroke freehand, so children move from guided tracing to independent drawing on the same sheet.
Print in black and white to save ink, or use the color set in a sheet protector with a dry erase marker.
