Let’s Get Ready to Write!

Hey there! Are you ready to have some fun with writing? Let’s learn how to do it together, one step at a time. Get your body ready, and let’s try our best!

Making Curved Lines

First, let’s practice making curved lines. Can you make a line that curves like a rainbow? Try it now! Great job! Now, let’s make another curved line, just like a big smile. Keep going and make lots of curved lines. You’re doing amazing!

Curved Lines All Around

Now, let’s make a curved line that goes all the way around, like a big circle. Can you do it? Wow, look at that! You’re getting really good at this.

Keep Practicing!

I’m so excited to see you getting ready to write! Remember, we learned how to do it one line at a time. Keep practicing and trying your best. Soon, you’ll be writing like a pro. Good job, and keep up the great work!

  • What are some things you see around you that have curved lines, like the ones we practiced? Can you draw them?
  • How does it feel when you make a curved line that looks just like you wanted it to? Why do you think practicing helps you get better?
  • Can you think of a time when you learned something new by practicing, just like we’re doing with writing? What was it, and how did you feel when you got better at it?
  • Rainbow Hunt: Go on a “rainbow hunt” around your home or classroom. Look for objects that have curved lines like a rainbow. Can you find a bowl, a clock, or a smiley face sticker? Draw these objects on a piece of paper and trace their curved lines. This will help you see how curved lines are everywhere!

  • Curvy Art: Create a piece of art using only curved lines. Use crayons, markers, or colored pencils to draw rainbows, circles, and smiles on a large sheet of paper. Try to fill the entire page with different curved shapes. Once you’re done, share your artwork with a friend or family member and explain the different curved lines you used.

  • Circle Walk: Go outside and find a safe space where you can walk in a big circle. As you walk, imagine you are drawing a giant circle on the ground with your feet. Can you make the circle bigger or smaller? Try walking in a circle with a friend and see if you can make your circles overlap. This activity helps you understand how curved lines can create shapes like circles!
