How to Use the Ladybug Shapes Tracing Worksheets
You can simply print the pages and let your student trace the ladybug shapes with a crayon, pencil, or marker.
However, if you want to reuse the pages, laminate them or use them with Dry Erase Sleeves or page protectors and a dry erase marker.
If your student isn’t ready to write, your student can use a variety of manipulatives to “trace” the ladybug shapes. You can try yarn, pipe cleaners, playdough, or even small candies to place around the shapes.
Here is a sample of the tracing pages with Wikki Stix. Wikki Stix are waxed yarn, and they are a fun manipulative to use with these tracing pages.
Benefits of the Ladybug Shapes Tracing Pages
These ladybug shape tracing pages will help your student practice fine motor skills. They can also help your student with other skills.
You can also use the pages to teach the shape names to your student. “Look at this shape. It has three sides. Let’s count them. What is the name of a shape that has three sides? That’s right! It’s a triangle.”
You can also use these pages to help your student analyze two-dimensional shapes. Ask questions. Is an oval like a circle? How are they the same? How are they different? How many sides does a hexagon have? How many sides does a octagon have? Which one of the shapes looks the most like a ladybug?
They will also help your student learn the names of shapes. Ten shapes are included in this printable set:
- diamond
- rectangle
- square
- circle
- star
- oval
- triangle
- heart
