Paolo Custom Name Tracing - Fill-in-the-Blank Free Worksheet
Paolo's missing-letter worksheet works well after a child can already trace and copy the name confidently — it shifts the task from motor copying to genuine spelling recall.
This free worksheet prints Paolo 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.
By the bottom of the page, every letter in Paolo has had its turn being the blank one, so the worksheet covers the full spelling of the name, not just its first letter or its overall shape.
