Letter C

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is part of a series designed to teach students how to write the letter ‘C’ in the D’Nealian style print, which is a blend of print and cursive writing intended to ease the transition to cursive. On the sheet, there are dotted letters for the students to trace: the first section is for the uppercase ‘C’, the second for the lowercase ‘c’, and the third section includes lines for practicing writing both. Each tracing section is preceded by arrows indicating the stroke order and direction.

The worksheet is designed to instruct students on the proper formation of the letter ‘C’, reinforcing both fine motor skills and letter recognition in the context of the D’Nealian script. By tracing the letters, students learn the unique angled lines and curves characteristic of this handwriting style. The repeated practice helps embed the shape of the letter ‘C’ in the students’ memory, aiding in their handwriting development. Additionally, the car illustration serves as a phonetic cue, linking the letter to a common word and enhancing vocabulary recognition.
