About this worksheet

First grade handwriting lines with a dashed middle line, a full page of them.

What kids practice

Blank pages for everyday writing, with handwriting lines sized for first grade. Each line has a top line, a dashed middle line and a bottom line. The story paper and journal page add a box to draw in, and the letter template labels each part of a friendly letter.

Watch for

  • Small letters stretching up to the top line. Small letters stay under the dashed line.
  • Forgetting the comma after Dear and after the closing.
  • Running out of room. Plan the first sentence before starting to write.

It's free to print, as many copies as you need. See the full writing paper and templates guide for 1st grade.
