Connect the Dots: Hardware
In this activity, learners will be shown a connect-the-dots activity with partially completed images of hardware items. They will be asked to connect the dots to finish the images and then name the object. There are five different variations of the connect-the-dots activity so that learners can practice more than once.

- Pencil
Instructions
Since learners will need prior knowledge of hardware items to complete this activity, it is recommended to have your learner complete the previous activities in this sequence before attempting this one.
- Print out the Learner’s Sheet pages.
- Gather a pencil.
- Tell your learner about this activity: “Today, we’re going to see how well you can identify hardware items by using connect-the-dots! You will finish the rest of the images on the page by following the numbers for the connect-the-dots and then write in the name of the object you drew.”
- Have your learner start based on these instructions and let them know to tell you when they are all done.
- Check their work based on the answer key provided in the next section.
- Go over any errors with your learner.
- Congratulate your learner on a job well done!
- Have your learner complete the other connect-the-dots to keep practicing. You may also have them repeat any of the connect-the-dots if they need additional practice.
