Trace and Write the Letter O Worksheet for Preschoolers

This letter O worksheet has children ages 3-5 trace a full closed loop, a stroke that requires more control than a simple curve because the pencil must return to its starting point. Practicing this shape strengthens the fine motor skills needed for round letters and numbers, including O, Q, and 0. The page also reinforces the short /o/ sound found in words like 'octopus' and 'orange.'

How to use this worksheet

Show your child the dotted letter O and demonstrate starting at the top, curving all the way around, and meeting back at the starting point to close the loop. Let them trace several guided Os with a pencil, reminding them to keep the loop connected rather than leaving a gap. After tracing, have them practice writing O independently on the blank lines provided, then use a pencil to trace once more and crayons to color any pictures on the page.

Materials needed

  • Eraser

  • Look for the letter O in a favorite picture book and count how many times it appears on one page.
