Vivian Name Tracing Worksheet (Free Printable PDF)

How to write Vivian, letter by letter

Vivian has 6 letters and 12 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. V 2 strokes. 1. Start at the top 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 top line.
2. i 2 strokes. 1. Start on the dashed middle line and pull straight down to the bottom line. 2. Add the dot.
3. 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.
4. i the same as before: 2 strokes.
5. a 2 strokes. 1. Start just under the middle line on the right, curve counterclockwise and stop just above the bottom line. 2. Start on the dashed middle line on the right and pull straight down to the bottom line.
6. n 2 strokes. 1. Start on the dashed middle line on the left and pull straight down to the bottom line. 2. Start just under the middle line on the left, curve clockwise and stop on the bottom line.

Tips for practising Vivian

• Only the first letter, V, is a capital: it starts at the top line. The rest are lowercase.
• a starts with the same round movement as c: begin near the top and go counterclockwise.
• The dot on i or j comes last, after the line.
• 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.
