About this sheet

What is on the page, and how to get the most out of it.

A dotted owl to trace and colour, a dotted uppercase O below it, and the line O for Owl.

An O is a C carried all the way round until it meets itself. One stroke, no lift, no corner, and only one thing to get right: the join.

Closing a curve back onto its own starting point is a real skill and it is the same one the number 6 and the number 9 need. The hand has to remember where it began while it is still moving. Early attempts leave a gap at the top or overlap past the start, and both are normal.

Because of that shared movement, O is worth doing near C, G, Q and the 6 and 9 tracing sheets rather than in alphabetical position.

The owl is a good pairing. It is built almost entirely from circles, two large eyes, a rounded body and a curved head, so the whole page practises the same closed-curve movement in different sizes.

What your child practises

One closed curve, which is the C taken all the way round and the same movement as 6 and 9.

  • Closing a curve onto its own starting point
  • Controlling one continuous circular stroke
  • Tracing circles at several sizes
  • Linking the letter O to the sound in owl

Common questions

My child leaves a gap at the top of the O.

Normal. Closing a curve means remembering where the stroke began while the hand is still moving, which is the same difficulty as the numbers 6 and 9.

Which sheets go well with this one?

C, G and Q, plus the number 6 and 9 tracing sheets. They all use the same closed-curve movement, so doing them near each other helps more than following the alphabet.
