Printing letters worksheets

Each print is a different sheet. You don't need to sign up.

Every letter has a shape and a home on the lines: tall letters touch the top, small letters live in the middle, and tails hang below.

Two grades, one set of letters: both print from the same 52. Print one here, or open a grade for examples and teaching notes.

Print by grade

  1. Kindergarten Core grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    Each print is a different sheet. You don't need to sign up.

    Kindergartners learn to print upper- and lowercase letters (L.K.1.a), and the guides on this sheet do the quiet teaching: a top line, a dashed middle line, and a bottom line every letter sits on. Each print draws a fresh handful of letters, traced twice and then written alone.

  2. 1st grade

    Examples and teaching notes

    First graders finish the set: all 52 letterforms (L.1.1.a), written smaller and steadier. The sheet stays the same and the guides do the fading; by now the dashed midline, not the traced model, is doing most of the work.
