Bear Fry Word Tracing Worksheet
This "bear" worksheet uses guide lines sized for early handwriting, wide enough that a child's letters don't need to be perfectly small and tidy to stay roughly in place.
A child tracing "bear" for the first time may go slowly and press hard on the pencil — that's normal early motor control, not a sign anything is wrong.
If a child already reads "bear" correctly but writes it inconsistently, that gap between reading and writing is common and exactly what a tracing worksheet like this one is meant to close.
