Simple Words Handwriting Practice “Dd” Dd” Words - Standard Tracing
The activities in this book cover a few simple “d” words, most of which will be found in the Dolch Word listing. There are four sections to this very simple workbook. The first section is to say the word, trace it and practice writing it on the lines. The second section is to say the name of the picture and try to write it on the lines next to the box. The third section is a search-quest for the child to look for pictures or words beginning with the “d” sound, and to cut or draw the pictures in the blank boxes, and then write the word next to the picture. The child may need some help but this can be a fun learning experience. The fourth section is to make a word listing with the child of simple words he or she recognizes that begin with the letter “d”. The child may need some assistance is compiling a simple word list, but can then practice writing the words on the lines provided at the back of this book. Trace the words on the lines. Write the word again next to the word you have traced. Practice writing the word one more time on the same line. Make a list of words you can think of that begin with the “d” sound and write them on the lines at the end of this book. Look through magazines, newspapers and books and cut out or trace or draw pictures of words that begin with the “d” sound and then practice writing the word on the lines next to the boxes near the end of this book. Have fun ☺
