Letter N tracing worksheet

The capital N is two lines and a diagonal. Down, up, then the diagonal — N is often confused with M and with a reversed N.

Each row alternates N and n 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: nest, nose, net. Hearing the sound at the start of real words is what connects the shape on the page to the letter it represents.
