Use portrait orientation and the same paper size in your printer settings. The PDF includes a white margin so the drawing stays inside the sheet.

With an adult

Say cat, map and bag together. Listen for short a in the middle.

a has a round bowl and a short stem on the right. o has no stem; d has a tall stem.
