How to write the letter D

  3. Trace Trace the dotted letters on the worksheet, starting at the green dot each time.
  4. Write alone Write D and d on the empty lines without the guide.

Tip for the letter D

Lowercase d starts with the circle, just like a, c and g. That one rule fixes most b and d mix-ups.

dog, duck, red. Say each word out loud and listen for the /d/ sound before tracing it.
