Directed Drawing and Writing K-2, Volume 1

A guided activity where students build a picture step by step and then write the word that names it. On every page, students follow the numbered steps, trace the finished picture, draw it on their own, and then trace and write the word.

55 different drawings at two levels give 110 worksheets. Used a couple of times a week, that covers the whole school year without repeating a picture.

A printable PDF file: 113 pages with 110 worksheets, a teacher page and a two-page illustrated contents. No physical book is shipped.

Level 1 shows the drawing in four steps and prints a light gray starting shape in the drawing box. Level 2 shows the same drawing in five to eight steps and leaves the box empty. Use them together in one class, or start with Level 1 and move to Level 2 during the year.

Same format and the same two levels, different drawings. Volume 1 opens with zoo and safari animals. Volume 2 adds 55 new drawings plus a bonus, with farm and forest animals and a bugs section. No drawing repeats between the two.
