Letter S Tracing Worksheet – Free Printables

Designed by Chris

The easiest and most introductory worksheet on the list, this version simply asks students to trace the letters inside of a bubble letter formation. The very large letters is good for initial fine motor skill development – plus, students can color the bubbles once they’re done!

In this version, students can practice tracing the letter (following the ideal stroke structure) within the large bubble text before attempting three words: sun, slug, sheep.

Children need to learn that letters fit within groups to form words. Here, with a focus on s words still, we have a simple sentence with three words starting with the focus letter. The sentence is: “The sun shines over the sandy beaches.”

This version is an additional option for sentence tracing. Consider pairing this worksheet with the previous one for extended practice.

This version gives Pre-K students the chance to practice the capital and lowercase versions of the letters in very large font. Through repetition, the students can come to build muscle memory in writing the letters. If your child finds this one too easy, try the similar version with horizontal lines later on this page.

This version has the same letter tracing bubbles at the top, but adds a dot tracing sheep to draw. Dot tracing images are great for children’s penmanship because it helps them practice fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination.

This version places uppercase and lowercase Ee letters alongside one another. The idea is to associate the two letters through proximal placement – students are encouraged to recognize these two letter forms as having the same semantic meaning.

This version has progression built into the one page. Students start with the lowercase letter on its own, then the uppercase, then lowercase and uppercase alongside one another. This culminates in writing a word: sun, with both uppercase and lowercase Ss varieties.

This version is for practicing uppercase and lowercase by rote, with students repeating the letters on each line to achieve uniformity of form and size.

The next step up from practicing the letter on its own is to put it into words. This version helps students to practice writing words by combining letters, and ensuring they are of uniform height and form. Students can practice the words: sun, sheep, and stop.

This version steps things up another level of difficulty, asking students to write the letter free-form, without the dot tracing scaffold in place. Students aren’t completely on their own, though. They still have a model at the start of each line that should be replicated across the line. I have also left the blank horizontal writing lines in place to help with size uniformity.

This version is all about practicing one word over and over, with the idea that repetition helps reinforce fine motor skills for the child. The word we’re focusing on here is the word “sun”.
