Line tracing worksheets

Tracing is practice for little hands: a line, a curve, a letter, with no hurry. Straight lines, zigzags, waves and loops from one picture to the next. The first step before letters, with no writing needed.

Try this together

Before the crayon, trace each line in the air with a finger and make a sound for it: a long sound for a straight line, a bumpy one for a zigzag.

How to use it

  1. Say the letter or number out loud as you start.
  2. Trace together from the black dot, slowly.
  3. Say the word once more and point to the picture.
