About this worksheet
Eight feelings words with matching faces to trace: happy, sad, angry, scared, surprised, sleepy, silly and calm. A gentle start for talking about emotions while practicing handwriting. First graders can do it on their own once they know the strategy at the top of the page.
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.
Printing tips
Download the PDF for the sharpest result and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). The PNG is 300 DPI, which is handy for tablets and coloring apps. This page is free for personal, family and classroom use.
