How D and d are drawn on this sheet
Capital D takes 2 strokes, each with a numbered dot where it starts. Stroke 1 starts on the top line at the left and pulls down; stroke 2 starts at the same point and slides right. Lowercase d has 2 strokes. Stroke 1 starts on the dashed midline right of center and circles back to the left; stroke 2 starts on the top line at the right and pulls down. Lowercase d is a circle back, then a stem from the top line down. Lowercase d is a tall letter that reaches the top line. Below the first rows, dotted letters grow fainter row by row, down to one empty row at the end of the page.

On this sheet capital D has 2 numbered and lowercase d has 2. Each number sits where its stroke starts, and the arrow shows which way it goes, in the order taught in US school print.
Can I turn the stroke arrows off on the D sheet?
Yes. Under Options, set Show stroke arrows to Off. They start on for Ages 3-4 and 5-6 and off for Ages 7+. Sloped print has none.
Can I add a name to the letter D sheet?

Is there a page like this for every letter, not only D?
Every letter from A to Z has its own page: the A to Z row on this page links to all 26. The letter tracing worksheets page also has a ready-made set of the whole alphabet.
