Can’t find the Name you Need?
The names presented here are from the 900 most common names from this year, but we couldn’t cover every name on the planet! So, here is how to create worksheets for more unusual names:
- 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.
- The more difficult option is to use design software such as Canva to create your own sheets. The benefit of this option is that you can write-in the child’s name in a professional font like Arial or Tahoma. Canva has a range of templates you can use for this purpose, and it is very easy to create. The free version of Canva may be enough for personal purposes, but if you want the advanced and premium features and fonts, you’d have to buy a monthly subscription.
Differentiation
A Little 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.
A Little Harder
Once your child feels confident in writing their name, you may wish to introduce additional words to their writing skillset. A good place to start is with sight words. These are the most common words in the English language and will ideally be identifiable “at sight”, without having to break the word down into their phenomes. But to start with, you can encourage greater familiarity with each word’s spelling through both flashcards and writing worksheets.
Furthermore, you could start to introduce short and simple digraphs, which are two letters representing one sound – think “th” and “sh”. These digraphs are useful for children to learn because they can then help children to start to spell words from sounds. Additionally, you could introduce CVC words, which is another set of simple words to help children learn how vowels and consonants function within word structure.
