Trace the capital letters A to Z
Twenty-six capitals, one practice row each, with the start point dotted and the stroke order numbered. Capitals come first because every one of them is full height, starts on the top line, and never drops below it.

About this sheet
Almost every letter tracing sheet you can print is a font with a dashed outline, and that is a different exercise than it looks. A font gives you the BOUNDARY of a filled shape, so dashing it asks a child to trace around the edge of a hollow letter — which is coloring-in. What a formation sheet needs is the centerline: the single path a pencil tip travels, in teaching order. There is no way to extract one from a font, so every letter here is drawn by hand as an open curve, the same way the digits on this site were.
Why it is drawn this way
Capitals are the half of the alphabet that fits the same three-line ruling a number sheet uses: top line, dotted middle, baseline. Every capital is cap height, every one starts on the top line, and none of them descends — which is exactly why they are taught first, and why this sheet has the same size of writing and the same number of cells per row as a sheet of digits. Q is the only letter with a tail, and it stays inside the box.
