Letter A Tracing and Coloring Worksheet for Preschoolers

How to use this worksheet

Start by having your child trace the dotted uppercase and lowercase A shapes with their pencil, following the arrows or starting points if shown. Next, have them look at the row of pictures and circle only the ones that start with the letter A, saying each picture's name aloud. Then have them practice writing the letter A on their own in the blank space provided, and finish by coloring the capital and small letter A shapes.
