Sentence Tracing Worksheets
Free. No ads. No sign-up.
Type one sentence per line. Each one gets four rows: a solid model with stroke-order arrows, a dark dotted copy, a light dotted copy, then a blank row to write it without help.
Class set
One copy for every student: type the first names and get one PDF, with each name on that student's own pages. Every student's pages use the same settings.

How the sheet is laid out
A sentence too long for one row wraps onto the next, and the PDF adds pages as needed, up to ten. A line with a single word gets one row instead: the model, two copies and space to write it. Choose US school print, sloped print or cursive, four guide lines or two, three sizes, and US Letter or A4.
Three examples
Three short sentences in US school print at the Ages 5-6 size, with stroke arrows on each model row. The same sentences in cursive. The copies to trace are light gray instead of dotted. The Ages 7+ size with two guide lines: the top line and the baseline only.
Questions and answers
How many sentences fit on a page?
Each sentence takes four rows. At the Ages 5-6 size a US Letter page holds two sentences of one line each; the PDF adds pages as needed, up to ten. Type up to 600 characters.
Can I mix words and sentences?
Yes. A line with a space in it is treated as a sentence and gets four rows. A line with one word gets one row with a model and two copies to trace. Words separated by commas on one line become single words.
Is anything I type saved?
No. The words are sent to this site's server only to draw the sheet and are not saved or logged there.
Can I make it in cursive?
Yes. Choose Cursive under Letter style in Options. The cursive is Playwrite US Trad, and the copies to trace are light gray. Stroke arrows are drawn in US school print and cursive; sloped print has none.
Can I print a copy for each student?
Yes. Under Class set, type up to 30 first names. Each student gets the same sentences with their own first name on the Name line, all in one PDF.
