Back to School Preschool Worksheets: Pre-Writing Tracing Practice

Help your little ones develop fine motor skills and pre-writing abilities with five pages of tracing activities. Children trace lines from left to right, a fundamental step in preparing them for more advanced writing tasks.

Name Writing Practice Page

Give kids the opportunity to practice writing their names in various formats, using pencils, markers, crayons, and pens. This non-editable page is a great way for children to familiarize themselves with the letters of their own names, building confidence and early literacy skills.

Back to School Preschool Worksheets: Gluing Practice

Add a touch of creativity to fine motor practice with five pages of gluing activities. Children color pictures and squeeze a dot of glue inside each circle, then sprinkle glitter on the glue for an extra fun twist. This activity not only enhances fine motor skills but also adds an element of sensory exploration.

Back to School Preschool Worksheets: Cutting Practice

Five pages of cutting activities help children refine their scissor skills and hand-eye coordination. Kids color pictures and then cut along the provided lines, making this an excellent way to practice precision and control.

Alphabet Tracing Practice – Upper and Lower Case

With 52 pages dedicated to alphabet tracing, children can practice finger-tracing large letters, followed by tracing with a pencil. They can also trace letters on handwriting lines, color pictures, cut them out, and paste them into squares. This thorough practice strengthens letter recognition and early writing skills. If a page has too many tasks, you can cut off the bottom section and save it for later, offering flexibility in your teaching approach.

Number Tracing Practice (1-10)

These 10 pages of number tracing activities guide children through finger-tracing large numbers and tracing them with a pencil on handwriting lines. Kids can color pictures on the right side of the page, making the learning process enjoyable. Like the alphabet tracing, if the page has too many tasks, save the bottom section for a later session.

Shape Recognition – Triangle, Square, Rectangle, Circle

Four pages of shape recognition activities allow children to color pictures, trace shapes, and connect dots to form each shape. These activities are essential for developing spatial awareness and early math skills.

Colors Coloring Pages

With 11 pages of coloring activities, children can explore and learn to recognize different colors through creative expression. Coloring helps reinforce color recognition in a way that’s both fun and educational.

Editable Name Writing and Cut and Paste Activity

This customizable activity allows children to practice writing and spelling their names, accommodating names from 2 to 8 letters. This interactive resource is perfect for name recognition and early literacy development.
