How to Use the Watermelon Shapes Tracing Worksheets
You can simply print the pages and let your student trace the watermelon 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 watermelon shapes.
You can try pink yarn, pipe cleaners, playdough, or even watermelon seeds 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 Watermelon Shapes Tracing Pages
These watermelon shape tracing pages will help your student practice fine motor skills. They can also help your student with other skills.
You can use the pages to teach the shape names to your student. “Look at this shape. It has six sides. Let’s count them. What is the name of a shape that has six sides? That’s right! It’s a hexagon.”
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 triangle have? How many sides does a square have? Which one of the shapes looks the most like a slice of watermelon?
The tracing pages 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
- hexagon
- octagon
