Blank Handwriting Worksheets

Are you wanting to give your students a creative activity to teach handwriting, but don’t know where to start? Look no further than these Blank Handwriting Worksheets! I specifically created these worksheets to be blank so your students can be as creative as they want!

It’s no small secret that learning handwriting is normally painstaking. Learning to hold writing objects such as pens, pencils, or markers doesn’t come naturally and takes a long time to get used to it. It’s understandable that what feels so natural to adults feels odd and uncomfortable to even the strongest of young learners. This makes learning proper handwriting one of the more difficult subjects for children to learn.

Naturally, the best course of action in learning anything is to practice, practice, and practice some more. While this may not be anyone’s favorite thing to practice, I’ve crafted some blank, no-prep handwriting worksheets to help your students practice in a way that’s fun and interactive.

Why Practicing Handwriting Matters

Much like anything in life, the only way to become proficient in a subject is by trial and error. The ability to practice something over and over again is a skill set that students need to develop early. These same students will need the principles taught to them in their early education days when practicing handwriting sheets seemed endless!

In a world that is becoming more and more digital, it’s tempting to move away from teaching children things like handwriting. However, every teacher understands that a topic like handwriting is about much more than just learning to write in print or cursive; it’s teaching children discipline, patience, and determination.

Practicing handwriting is the perfect gateway into the world of writing, which can be a great way for students to communicate, express themselves, and write about their daily lives. These skills will be essential in the students’ futures, especially as they work towards higher education and career goals.
