Letter Yy Tracing Worksheets
Capital Y and lowercase y share a page here because children meet them together and confuse them separately. Lowercase y: slant down, slant up, then straight down below the line. The sheet gives a model letter, dotted letters to trace over, then empty guides — which is the order the skill actually transfers in.

What to watch for when you grade this sheet
- Reversing y with v and g, the pair it is genuinely confused with at this age.
- Starting the letter at the wrong point, which produces a shape that looks right but cannot be written at speed.
- Floating above the baseline, or sitting the letter on the dotted midline instead of the solid line.
One thing that helps
The tail goes below the line. Children who keep it above have usually learned y as a v with a stick.
