Can’t Find the Name you Need?
The above names are from the most common names of this year. If you need a name that is less common, there are some solutions for you:
- The first option is to use my blank tracing sheets. I’ve made versions for boys and girls with the name left empty. Print these out and use a black pen to enter the child’s name on the top line. Children can then use the modelled writing provided by you to practice their names on the follow-up sheets.
- If you feel you need a more professional printed look, you can use design software to make your own template. For the sheets I’ve provided on this page, I’ve used Canva Pro. You may be able to make a similar look and feel on Canva, either with the limited free version, or the Pro version which will provide you with more options for professional fonts, images, and styles.
Differentiation
Make it Easier
Name tracing is not an activity that a child can begin without prior skill development. We usually start with coloring sheets to help children develop the skills of holding a pen. Next, we might move to dot tracing activities, like tracing animal shapes, to help with precision in penmanship. Finally, you might want to use my free individual letter tracing sheets to learn the correct strokes required for letter formation.
Make it More Challenging
Once your child is comfortable writing their name, you can help expand their vocabulary with common sight words. Sight words are frequently used words that children benefit from recognizing instantly. Try starting with the Dolch or Fry word lists and encourage your child to practice these with flashcards or tracing sheets. I have a variety of sight word activities available to make this learning step engaging and fun!
Additionally, you can start to introduce common digraphs and word families such as th words, sh words, and CVC words like -an, -at, and -op. By introducing common word forms, children can begin to more confidently construct the spelling of simple words.
