Drawing Lines


                    We use a ruler or scale to draw straight lines.


                                                                                            You Should Know

                                                                                         •   Hold the ruler fi rmly so
                                                                                           that it does not move.
                                                                                         •   Use a well-sharpened
                                                                                           pencil to draw a line.

                    We can use some other things such as a
                    book and a pencil box to draw lines.


                                                                                 Pencil box        Book


                    We can draw curved lines using some objects or freehand.

                      4.  Draw lines as directed using a ruler.

                    Tracing Shapes


                    We can trace some fl at shapes using the base of solid-shaped

                    things. For example, the base of a bucket will give us a circle.
