What is inside?
- Teacher and family guide. A flexible five-day plan and printing instructions.
- My name. An adult adds a light pencil model; the learner traces and tries a blank writing row. For printed dotted names, make a separate personalized sheet with the name generator.
- Follow the paths. Straight, zigzag, and wavy paths with a space to draw.
- Meet A, M, and S. Uppercase and lowercase tracing models plus blank copy lines.
- Count and trace. Count dots and practice numbers 1 to 5.
- Trace and draw shapes. Circles, squares, and triangles with room for an independent drawing.
Adapt it to the learner
The day labels are suggestions, not a readiness test. Read directions aloud, try one row, and stop when interest fades. Choose letter models that match the learner’s classroom. Pair practice with conversation, drawing, and hands-on play.
Make more letter worksheets, number worksheets, tracing paths, or shape sheets. Teachers can make up to 25 individual name PDFs with the class batch tool.
