Letter P

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a handwriting practice page from the Zaner Bloser handwriting series, focusing on the letters ‘P’ and ‘p’. It presents the uppercase ‘P’ and lowercase ‘p’ at the top of each row with arrows and numbers guiding the sequence of strokes for proper letter formation. The worksheet features several lines where students can practice these letters, starting with large, guided examples and moving toward smaller, less guided practice. The word “pen” at the bottom of the worksheet provides a contextual example of how the letter ‘p’ is used in a word, which students can trace and write.

The purpose of this worksheet is to teach students how to write the letters ‘P’ and ‘p’ accurately according to the Zaner Bloser handwriting method. It encourages students to learn the correct stroke order and to develop the fine motor skills necessary for writing these letters. As the guidance decreases with each line, students are challenged to write the letters more independently, which helps reinforce their handwriting skills. Including the word “pen” at the bottom of the page helps students understand how the letter ‘p’ is used in everyday language and assists in linking handwriting to reading skills.
