Questions and answers

What is on each worksheet?

Short sentences to trace and copy. Each one gets a solid model, a dark dotted copy, a light dotted copy and a blank row, on four guide lines: the top line, a dashed midline, the baseline and a dotted line below it.

Where do the built-in sentences come from?

They are the site's own practice sentences, written for these sheets with short, common words. They are not from a published list.

Which size should I pick?

Ages 3-4 draws capitals about 0.7 inch tall, Ages 5-6 about 0.55 inch and Ages 7+ about 0.4 inch. If the letters look cramped for your child's writing, choose the next size up.

Do the sheets show how to form each letter?

In US school print and cursive, the model row has a numbered dot where each stroke starts and an arrow for its direction. They can be turned off under Options. Sloped print has none.

Is it free?

Yes. Making, printing and downloading a sheet is free, with no sign-up, no email and no ads.
