Tracing Worksheet – W Is For…

Start your letter W week off strong with this engaging tracing and coloring worksheet. On this page, your child will:

Trace the phrase “W is for” to begin forming simple sentences, followed by four W words – web, watermelon, whale, and witch.

Each word is paired with a large, friendly image for them to color. Making it rather easy for your child to connect each vocabulary word with a visual representation. Thus boosting their vocabulary retention and phonics awareness.

You can reinforce learning as you go by asking your child questions such as:

• “Where have you seen a spider web?”

• “What color is a watermelon?”

• “What sound does a whale make?”

These small conversations help build comprehension and early speaking skills.

Build-Your-Own Letter W Flip Book

Next up in your printable pack are three flip-book pages. Each page contains two rectangular sections, just the right size for little hands to trace, color, and cut (with your help, of course).

Each rectangle features:

The phrase “W is for ___”. Followed by a W word, and a large picture to color.

The W words included are:

• Whale

• Water

• Wolf

• Wheel

• Watch

Throughout the week, your preschooler can complete each panel one at a time.

At the end of the week, simply help them cut the rectangles and staple them together to create a Letter W flip book that I’m sure they will be proud to “show off”.

These activities reinforce:

Phonemic awareness (especially the /w/ sound)

Vocabulary development

Print awareness

Fine motor skills through tracing, coloring, and cutting

What Your Preschooler Will Learn?

This Letter W printable pack may be short, but I assure you it’s packed with valuable early learning benefits.

As your preschooler works through each page, they’ll be:

Identifying the uppercase and lowercase letter W

Recognizing beginning sounds and associating them with pictures

Practicing tracing and letter formation

Learn the letter W vocabulary through pictures

Improving fine motor skills with coloring and scissors work

Gain confidence and independence as they create their own flip book

These foundational skills are essential for early reading and writing success!

Suggested Ways To Use the Letter W Printables

To help you make the most of these activities, here’s a simple weekly plan to follow:

Monday – Trace & Talk – Begin with the “W is for” tracing worksheet. Go over each word, say it aloud, trace slowly, and color together. Talk about what each word means and where they may have seen it before.

Tuesday–Thursday – Flip Book Time – Work on 2–3 rectangles per day. Have your child:

• Trace the phrase

• Say the word

• Color the picture

• Talk about what the item is and where it might be found

You can also turn it into a game: “Can you find something in the house that starts with W?”

Friday – Flip Book Assembly – Cut out all the flip book rectangles and help your child staple them into a book. Let them “read” it aloud to a family member or display it proudly in the classroom. It’s a great way to boost confidence and review what they’ve learned.

More W Words for Preschoolers

If you’d like to extend the learning even further, consider introducing a few more W words your preschooler might recognize:

• Wagon

• Window

• Wind

• Waterfall

• Walrus

• Wings

• Wig

• Woods

You can turn these into a vocabulary wall, a word scavenger hunt, or a drawing activity.
