Name Tracing Worksheet on US Letter, exactly as it prints.
A child's own name is the first word most of them want to write, and usually the first one a preschool or kindergarten asks for. It is also a good teacher: a capital at the start, lower case after it, and letters the child already sees every day.
The sheet opens with the word Name as a placeholder. Replace it in Letters to trace — end it with a space so the copies along each row stay apart — and every row updates. Start with dotted letters, then move to outline and pale tint as the shapes become automatic.
Every sheet here is free, adjustable and prints at exact scale.
Type it into Letters to trace in the settings. It repeats along every row; add a space after the name, as in "Maya ", so each copy stands apart.
The sheet opens on 20 mm rows, a comfortable size for ages three to five. Drop to 14 mm as control improves, or go up to 25 mm for a very first attempt.
Most schools teach a capital first letter and lower case after it — "Sam" rather than "SAM". Type it the way the child's teacher writes it.
A long name fits fewer copies per row, and one longer than the row is cut off at the edge. Lower the row height until the whole name fits.
