Letter Tracing Charts
The Letter Tracing Charts were created for students in the first year of primary school to meet the English Curriculum ACELY1653 and ACELA1758. They provide guidelines to help students learn to correctly form each lowercase letter of the alphabet.
As an additional challenge, students can find sight words among the letters. This feature keeps the charts highly relevant throughout the school year.
