Trace it, then write it on your own

Each page takes the help away a row at a time — dots, fainter dots, just the first letter, then a bare line — so the last thing a child does on it is write the letter alone.

How it works
Ages3–6TypeLetters

Look, trace, then write alone.

A letter tracing worksheet generator, printable as a PDF. One letter a page: the letter big at the top with every stroke numbered where it starts, then rows of primary-ruled handwriting lines — dotted letters to trace, fainter dots, only the first letter given, a short word that starts with it (A is for apple), and a blank line to finish. The letters are ball-and-stick manuscript, the print most US schools teach first, drawn as strokes so the dots follow the pencil's path. Pick the letter to start from and more sheets go on through the alphabet; choose capitals, lowercase or both, and a size for preschool, kindergarten or first grade.
