Writing practice with a Halloween list
Nothing here is scary or gory: the words are about dressing up, a mask and candy, the night animals (bat, cat, owl, spider), the moon and a friendly ghost saying boo. Each word is printed once in dark letters, then in pale letters to go over, then on an empty line. There are no mazes, math or pictures to color on these sheets.
Three examples
Bat to night, ten words in the sloped hand at the Ages 7+ size.
Halloween, Happy Halloween, trick, treat, pumpkin and costume with two guide lines on A4.
Trick to moon in the word tracing layout: copies on one row, a blank row under it.
