What's on the worksheet

  1. Trace each uppercase and lowercase letter. Start at the green dot.
  2. Write the alphabet on your own.

Skills practiced

This page puts the whole alphabet on one sheet, with each uppercase letter right next to its lowercase partner: Aa, Bb, Cc, and so on to Zz. Your child traces every pair from the green starting dot, then writes the alphabet alone on three blank primary lines. Seeing the pairs side by side builds letter recognition, and kindergarten writing goals expect children to print most capital and small letters by the end of the year.

Common Core L.K.1.a: Writing many capital and small letters by hand

Common Core RF.K.1.d: Recognizing and naming every capital and small letter

Short descriptions in our own words. About our standards.

How to use it, step by step

  1. Your child reads the instruction out loud and explains in their own words what to do.
  2. Work through the tasks in order: the first ones are easier and warm up for the next.
  3. The task with a star is optional, for early finishers.
  4. Check together with the answer key and redo only what was wrong.

Tips for parents and teachers

Have your child say each letter name while tracing, so the shape, the name, and the order stick together. Watch the lowercase letters that hang below the line, g, j, p, q, and y, because kids often sit them on the bottom line like the others. A quick check after each row helps: does every letter touch the bottom line?

Make it easier or harder

Easier: Trace one row a day for four days. On the blank lines, let your child write only the letters in their own name instead of the full alphabet.

Harder: Ask your child to write the alphabet from memory on the blank lines without looking at the traced rows. Then try a second time and look for neater letters, not faster ones.
