Type a name, choose the letters and lines, print
Make a custom name tracing worksheet for your child or for a whole class. Type the name, choose dotted letters with start dots and arrows, and print. It is free and there is nothing to sign up for.
Your worksheet:
Say the name of each letter as your child traces it, and watch where the pencil starts. A letter that starts at the top is faster to write and easier to read later. A few minutes a day is enough. When the tracing looks easy, fold the page so only the empty lines show.
Type one name on each line and choose “One page for each name”. You get a page for every child in one print job.
Type the name in the box above, choose the size and the kind of letters, and press Print. The worksheet is made in your browser. It is free and you do not need an account.
Yes. Press Print and choose “Save as PDF” as the printer. You can then print it again or send it to someone.
No. The page draws the worksheet on your own device. What you type is not sent to us and is not saved.
Most American kindergartens teach a capital first letter and small letters after it, as in Emma. Type it the way you want your child to write it.
A few careful lines are better than a full page done in a hurry. Stop while it still looks neat, and end with one line written alone.
“Letters are messy, start in the wrong place or face the wrong way”
Start at the Top is a full 10-day plan, with a short video that shows you every step. The goal: on day 10 your child starts every small letter in the right place, sits it on the line, and writes new words that you can read. It is the goal, not a promise.
