Why Tracing Lines is Important
Being able to form letters for writing is a very complex skill for a young child and there are many other smaller skills that need to be mastered before a child can be successful at writing. Skills such as the ability to grip a pencil, form a line, start and stop at the correct spots, and to write on a line can be practiced and strengthened, getting a child ready for forming letters.
This brings us to the importance of being able to trace lines. Holding a pencil then moving it along a line strengthens the fine motor skills needed to precisely form letters.
Our tracing pages are fun, colorful and engaging and available in several themes. We think the best way to use them is to print and laminate each page and let your child or student trace the lines with a dry erase marker. When finished, wipe clean and trace again! A pile of laminated tracing pages available to students during free play or writing centers would provide great opportunities for practice!
Our popular Mermaid Tracing Page is free!
We also have other pages that can be purchased individually or in a bundle.
