Parallel and Perpendicular Lines: Trace the Lines

Learn the difference between parallel and perpendicular lines with this helpful tracing worksheet! Students will be asked to trace pairs of parallel and perpendicular lines in different orientations, giving them tactile memory of both types of line pair. 

This worksheet is a great way to introduce second- and third-grade students to parallel and perpendicular lines using a hands-on learning experience. These types of lines are an important part of geometry, so giving students a strong understanding of what they are can help as students learn more geometry concepts later on. With this knowledge, learners can also find parallel and perpendicular lines all around them in their everyday lives!
