A two-page letter Z tracing worksheet. Learn to write capital Z (1 stroke) and lowercase z (1 stroke) step by step, trace them on handwriting lines, then trace zipper, zoo and zip, find every Z and z, and draw something that starts with z.
What’s included
- A how-to box that numbers the strokes of capital Z and lowercase z in order, with an arrow for each
- A picture of a zipper for the sound of z
- Rows to trace Z, z and Zz, each with room to write the letter alone
- Three words to trace: zipper, zoo and zip
- A letter hunt: circle every Z and z among 20 letters
- A box to draw something whose name starts with z
- A Name and Date line on both pages
- Color and black & white versions
How the letters are drawn
The letters are ball-and-stick print. Each stroke starts at a big dot: lines pull down from the top, and round letters start like c and go around to the left. The how-to box numbers the strokes in order, with an arrow for each one.
