Step 2:

Let's practice making zippy zig-zag lines. Use the zig-zag template as a guide. Start at the dot and end at the star. Start with a sharp turn zig zag line. Next is a slow wave line, with smooth up and down moves. Now try a swirly line, with round circle curly ends.

Extended tip:

It’s time to race! Get ready, get set! Using a blank piece of paper, follow each other around the page in an exciting colorful line chase race.

Big Thinkers:

The quickest way to travel is in a straight line, but zig-zags are far more fun! If speed isn’t a need, slow waves can make us feel calm and gentle as we move on the page.
