Pick the letters, choose dotted or dashed, print
Make your own letter tracing worksheets. Pick the letters your child is learning, or the whole alphabet, and print dotted letters on lines with a green dot where each letter starts.
Your worksheet:
You do not have to go from a to z. Many reading programs start with s, a, t, p, i, n because a child can build real words from them right away: sat, pin, tap. Type those six letters to make a first page.
Almost every word your child reads is in small letters. Capitals are needed for the first letter of a name and a sentence. Most children do well learning the small letters first.
Pick a letter set or type your own letters above, choose the size, and press Print. The page is made in your browser, free.

“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.
