What’s included?
This download includes four A4, pdf sheets (portrait) to practise handwriting x6 lowercase letters.

What’s it for?
This resource has been designed to enable learners to practise handwriting the second set of phase 2 phonics letters - m, d, g, o, c, k. Learners are guided where to write with a starting dot and grey letter shape to follow. The four different sheets vary in level of support and challenge provided making it easy for adults to select just the right level to match each learners ability. Learners could begin at sheet 1 and revisit these letters working through sheets 2 - 4 which incrementally provide less support yet more challenge each time.

Who’s it for?
This resource has been designed for early years children, pupils in years one and two as well as older students needing additional learning support.

Resource details
This activity has been designed to write straight on. Each letter has a clear ‘starting dot’ so learners know where to place their pencil to begin and dots on top of each letter provide guidance of where exactly to write.

Set 1
This set includes x6 letters - m, d, g, o, c, k.

The font used is Sassoon Infant Std - size 100.

Each set of letters has been included on a line - to model how letters should look when positioned correctly on a line.

There is a clear space at the top of each sheet for learners to write their name.

• Page 1

Learners have one set (row) of each letter/sound to write - using the starting dot and dotted lines (on top of each pale grey letter shape) as a guide.

• Page 2

Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line includes the same (grey) letter shapes for learners to trace over without a starting dot and without the dotted line guides. Letters ‘o’ and ‘c’ share the line between them due to limited space.

• Page 3

Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line includes some grey letter shapes for learners to trace over without a starting dot. There is also a blank space for learners to write their own letters after this for every letter. Letters ‘o’ and ‘c’ share the line between them due to limited space.

• Page 4

Learners have two sets (rows) of each letter/sound to write - using the dotted lines as a guide for the first line. The second line is a blank line for learners to write each letter without any scaffolding support. Letters ‘o’ and ‘c’ have one line each due to limited space.
