Avery Name Tracing Worksheet (Free Printable PDF)

How to write Avery, letter by letter

Avery has 5 letters and 10 strokes in all. On the worksheet each stroke starts at a green dot, and the first copy of the name numbers the strokes in this order:

1. A 3 strokes. 1. Start at the top line and slant down to the left to the bottom line. 2. Start at the top line and slant down to the right to the bottom line. 3. Start below the middle on the left and slide across to the right.
2. v 2 strokes. 1. Start on the dashed middle line on the left and slant down to the right to the bottom line. 2. Start on the bottom line and slant up to the right to the dashed middle line.
3. e 1 stroke. Start just under the middle line on the left and go all the way round counterclockwise.
4. r 2 strokes. 1. Start on the dashed middle line and pull straight down to the bottom line. 2. Start just under the middle line, curve clockwise and stop on the dashed middle line.
5. y 2 strokes. 1. Start on the dashed middle line on the left and slant down to the right to the bottom line. 2. Start on the dashed middle line on the right, curve clockwise and stop below the bottom line.

Tips for practising Avery

• Only the first letter, A, is a capital: it starts at the top line. The rest are lowercase.
• y drops below the bottom line: the faint dotted line under each row shows how far.
• For the very first tries, print the trace and fade page: the letters get lighter row by row until only the start dots are left.
