About this worksheet

Twelve CVC picture words to trace: dog, fox, box, mop, pot and log with short o, then bug, cup, sun, bus, rug and tub with short u. Each word has a colored vowel, a dashed copy and a light copy on handwriting lines. It suits ages 4 to 6, and little ones can count the pictures with a finger.

Tips for using it

Check the grip first: pencil held between thumb and pointer finger, resting on the middle finger.
Leave a finger space between words; let your child lay a finger on the line after each word.
Short, daily practice beats long sessions; stop while it is still fun.
