This number 6 formation worksheet gives your child one big, friendly number to master, the number 6, which is written as the word six. The giant number 6 is drawn as a wide track with a dashed path down the middle, numbered steps that show where each stroke begins, and arrows that show which way the pencil should travel. Children start at step 1 and follow the path all the way through, so the number 6 is formed the right way, every time.
