🧠 Before starting
Before giving the worksheet to a child, it helps to explain that the goal is not just to color inside the letter. The child should follow the handwriting movement, respect the direction of the stroke and try to keep the letters regular.
- Look carefully at the model before tracing.
- Trace slowly and follow the shape of the letter.
- Try to keep the same size and shape across the line.
