Single Sunflower Seeds

This focused worksheet helps students in Pre-K and Kindergarten develop early handwriting readiness by drawing small circles inside a sunflower center to create individual “seeds.” The activity emphasizes fine motor precision, curved stroke control, spatial awareness, and consistent hand pressure, all within a limited space that supports the detailed movements required for small-letter writing.

Learning Goals

• Pre-Writing Skills (Early Childhood) – Practice small circular strokes used in letters and punctuation
• Fine Motor Development – Strengthen finger control, precision, and steady pressure
• Visual Motor Integration – Improve spatial awareness while working within confined areas
• Handwriting Readiness – Build motor memory for tight, controlled curved strokes

Educational Value

• Teacher-Created Resource – Designed to align with early handwriting and fine motor development standards
• High-Detail Practice – Encourages careful repetition and attention to consistency
• Engaging Visual Theme – Bright sunflower imagery keeps students motivated and focused
• Flexible Implementation – Works well for centers, OT support, morning work, RTI, or homeschool use
• Low Prep – Simple print-and-use worksheet with minimal materials required

This printable pre-writing worksheet supports young learners as they develop the micro-motor skills needed for neat handwriting. By repeatedly forming small circles in a controlled space, students strengthen finger precision, curved stroke mastery, and visual motor planning. Whether used in a classroom or homeschool setting, this worksheet provides a meaningful and engaging way to build foundational writing skills and confidence.
