Personalized Name Tracing and Writing Practice Desk Tags: Editable

A child's name is the first word they really want to write. These boards give every student their own name to build, trace and write, with no hand lettering from you.

These personalized name practice boards help pre-K and kindergarten students learn to spell, trace, and write their own name. Type your class list once and every board and set of letter cards fills in with each student's name. Students stick the letter cards in order, trace their name, write it on their own, and store the letters on the board. Laminate the boards for a repeatable morning work or center activity. Open the file in the free Adobe Acrobat Reader so the names fill in correctly.
