Catch the Curvy C

This early literacy worksheet supports students in Pre-K, Kindergarten, and Grade 1 as they practice uppercase letter formation, phonics awareness, and handwriting control. Learners trace the uppercase letter C using dotted guides and then write it independently, while a friendly cat illustration reinforces the letter’s beginning sound and strengthens sound-symbol connections.
