These printables are designed to help children to learn to write in cursive and build muscle memory in writing.
The variations below include upper case and lower case ‘Kk’ versions for a variety of cursive writing practice activities as well as common K words for early learners to practice their cursive writing style.
I’ve structured the pieces in order of difficulty, going from easiest to most difficult. The natural progression is from individual letters to words to full sentence, practicing muscle memory, connecting words, and fluency as we go.

Free Cursive K Worksheets

This version shows graduated progression all in the one sheet. Students practice lowercase k, then uppercase K, then two words in cursive: kite and key. Students learn that the uppercase K does not link in cursive style.
In this version, we practice the lowercase k, using horizontal handwriting lines as a guide to ensuring we keep shape and form across the rows. Students practice along six lines, with the chance to practice the letter 60 times to build muscle memory.
In this version, learners practice tracing uppercase K letters, developing muscle memory with its stroke structure. They also develop the understanding that the uppercase version does not connect or flow onto the next letter.
In this version, students practice both the capital and lowercase versions of the letter. This is a good option to combine the two previous tasks into one simple lesson, with 48 chances to practice each letter. Students can also learn the relative size of each letter to the other.
Once students have mastered individual letters, they move onto practicing the letter in the context of a full word. The first word we practice is “key”, a word our students should be familiar with! Focus on a smooth flow from the k to the e.
This version practices a longer word – kite. students need to connect the k to the i at the start, then continue their cursive linking through k, i, t, and e. They then need to return back to dot the i and cross the t.
For our next word, students practice uppercase and lowercase k’s in the word kiss, with a focus on linking the lowercase k to the i, then the i to the s, and s to the final s. In the uppercase version, they practice the capital K with recognition that it doesn’t link to the next letter.
In this version, students get a chance to practice and show mastery of all three of their focus k-words: key, kite, and kiss. Students write 24 words in total, all involving practice in linking k’s.
For our first full sentence, I have included horizontal tracing lines, which can help students to maintain form and structure. Students practice the sentence: “The key is in the kite” three times.
Our final worksheet is a culmination of the skills developed throughout the other sheets, where students practice a complete sentence with plenty of chances to use the cursive k in context. The sentence is: “Kangaroos and koalas are kind kings of the kingdom.”
