Letter B tracing worksheet

The capital B is a straight line and two bumps. B is one of the most reversed letters. The straight line always comes first, on the left.

Each row alternates B and b so a child practises both forms of the same letter in one sitting — which is how it is taught, because the two shapes are learned as one letter rather than two. Say the letter SOUND as they trace rather than its name: that is what turns tracing into reading.

Words to say together while tracing: ball, bear, butterfly. Hearing the sound at the start of real words is what connects the shape on the page to the letter it represents.
