Niall Custom Name Tracing - Fill-in-the-Blank Free Worksheet
Unlike a tracing worksheet, Niall's missing-letter version tests whether a child can recall the whole name well enough to fill in whichever letter is left out — a useful check after tracing practice has already built the motor pattern.
This free worksheet prints Niall once per row with one letter left blank each time, moving to a different letter on every row — the child writes in the missing letter rather than tracing the whole word.
For boys named Niall in Ireland, filling in a missing letter row by row is a quick way to spot which specific letters still need more practice, rather than judging the whole name as simply right or wrong.
