Free Letter Tracing Worksheets – Uppercase, Lowercase, Mixed, & A–Z on One Page

Free Uppercase Letter Tracing Worksheets

These capital letter tracing worksheets help preschool and kindergarten kids practice writing in a fun, structured, and developmentally appropriate way. Whether your child is learning how to form each letter for the first time or is ready to try writing without the dotted lines, these free printable alphabet worksheets give you everything you need to build your child's confidence and skills — one uppercase letter at a time.

We offer a variety of letter tracing formats, designed to fit different needs. Browse our full collection of 130+ free PDF uppercase tracing sheets, or choose from six capital letter worksheet sets below. 

Free Lowercase Letter Tracing Worksheets

Learning to write lowercase letters is a big step for young learners — and often trickier than uppercase! With 7 starting points to learn (compared with 2 in uppercase) and a wider variety of lines to draw, occupational therapists recommend teaching uppercase first. However, with lowercase being used and seen far more often, some educators still prefer to begin with lowercase. 

Our 100+ Free PDF lowercase letter tracing worksheets are carefully designed to support developing motor skills, visual recognition, and early writing confidence. 

Check out our full collection or choose from the five worksheet sets below. 

Free Uppercase & Lowercase Letter Tracing Worksheets

Learning how capital and small letters relate is an exciting step in a child’s writing journey. Our uppercase and lowercase tracing worksheets help children confidently connect the two — building fluency and letter recognition at the same time.

Each worksheet includes letter pairs like Aa, Bb, Cc and so on, helping learners master both versions side by side. These sheets are especially helpful once your child has practiced uppercase or lowercase on their own and is ready to integrate them together.

Choose from our full collection of 100+ free PDF worksheets for tracing uppercase and lowercase (Aa) together, or go directly to the downloads for the worksheet type you want below.

📚 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What age group are these letter tracing worksheets best for?

These worksheets are ideal for preschoolers and kindergarten-aged children — typically ages 3 to 6 — but they can also support older kids who need extra handwriting practice.

Should my child start with uppercase or lowercase letters?
