About this resource

Description

Drawing hearts is one of the friendliest ways to introduce shape formation, and this Drawing Hearts Worksheet gives young learners a clear, step-by-step place to practice it. Kindergarten students learn shapes by looking closely at them and then making them with their own hands, and a heart is a perfect first curved shape: two rounded humps at the top, two slanted sides, and one point at the bottom. Tracing that outline before drawing it freehand builds the pencil control children will need for letters and numbers later on.

This printable moves students from guided practice to independent work. They begin by tracing three dashed heart outlines in three different sizes, then draw hearts of their own inside three roomy boxes, and finish by coloring every heart in a mixed group of shapes while marking the shapes that are not hearts. Use the Drawing Hearts Worksheet as a Valentine’s Day activity, a morning warm-up, a fine motor center, or a quick check of shape recognition. An answer key is included, so checking the page takes seconds.

What’s Included

  • One printable worksheet page and one answer key page
  • Part A: three dashed heart outlines to trace, from large to small
  • Part B: three blank boxes for drawing hearts freehand
  • Part C: six shapes to sort by coloring the hearts and marking the rest
  • Kindergarten directions set in large, easy-to-read type

There are three reasons this kindergarten geometry worksheet helps children. First, tracing before drawing gives students a model to copy, so they succeed on the first attempt instead of guessing at the curve. Second, the three sizes teach that a shape stays the same shape whether it is big or small, which is exactly what kindergarten geometry standards ask students to understand. Third, the sorting section makes children compare a heart with a star, a circle, and a triangle, so they learn to name a heart by its features rather than by memory alone.

Teachers can slide the page into a sleeve and use dry-erase markers so one printable serves a center all week, or hand out red crayons and turn the finished sheets into a Valentine’s Day bulletin board. Parents can extend the activity by cutting out the traced hearts and gluing them to folded paper to make cards for family members. Ask your child to hunt for heart shapes around the house and draw the ones they find on the back of the page.
