Number 4 tracing worksheet

Four is the corner number: down, across, then lift the pencil and draw the tall line down through the corner. This 'open 4' (like the printed numeral) is the standard school form — the closed triangle 4 comes later with speed.

Four is often the first number a child writes with two separate strokes, which makes it a quiet milestone in pencil control.

When 4 feels automatic on its own, the 1–10 sheet mixes it back in with its neighbours — recognising it in a line-up is the next step after writing it alone.
