Tracing Desk Strip

This activity is great for the classroom at the beginning of term. Children beginning school will enjoy colouring and tracing the letters of the alphabet. Laminate each one so that the children can use them repeatedly throughout the year!
  • Step 1Print out the Tracing Desk Strips template by clicking the ‘Download Activity template’ button above.
  • Step 2Colour in your Tracing Desk Strips with bright colours. If you want to use these repeatedly through the year, don’t trace the letters just yet - once laminated you can trace over and over again. Don't forget to write your name in the space provided!
  • Step 3Cut out your name plate. Adult supervision is recommended when using scissors.
  • Step 4Laminate your Tracing Desk Strip so it lasts the entire year! Use Blu-Tack to attach to your desk. Now you can practice writing the alphabet by tracing the dotted letters!
