Cursive I Worksheets
On this page, you will find a complete set of free printable cursive I worksheets created to help children and beginners learn how to write the letter I in cursive with confidence and ease. Each worksheet provides guided tracing activities that make practicing the elegant strokes of cursive writing both simple and enjoyable.
In this collection, you’ll find three focused worksheet types that build skills step by step: Big Cursive “I” Letters, Cursive “I” Upper & Lowercase, and Cursive “I” 3 Letter Words.
Big Cursive I Letters
The Big Cursive “I” Letters worksheet introduces the form and structure of the cursive capital and lowercase I. Starting with large versions helps students clearly see the curves and loops that define this graceful letter.
To write a cursive capital I, begin with a tall downward stroke that starts just below the top line, followed by a small upward curve at the base and a short loop at the top for decoration. For lowercase “i,” begin at the midline with a short upward curve, then bring the line down and make a small connecting tail to the right. Don’t forget to add the dot above, keeping it small and centered.
Encourage learners to trace these letters several times, paying attention to smooth, even motion. Practicing big shapes first helps improve coordination and prepares the hand for smaller writing.
Cursive I Upper & Lowercase
The Cursive “I” Upper & Lowercase worksheet helps learners connect the uppercase and lowercase I in a single continuous motion. This section focuses on developing control, rhythm, and consistent letter size.
Start with a capital I and continue directly into a lowercase i without lifting the pen. This teaches students how cursive writing flows naturally across the page. Repeating the pattern builds muscle memory and helps develop smoother transitions.
Encourage students to keep their pen pressure light and maintain an even pace. The goal is to create graceful, connected writing without sharp breaks or hesitation.
Cursive I 3 Letter Words
The Cursive “I” 3 Letter Words worksheet allows learners to practice using the letter I in simple, connected words.
Examples such as “ink,” “ill,” and “ice” are perfect for showing how cursive I joins with other letters. Start by tracing each word slowly, then practice writing them freely across the lines. Reading the words aloud while writing helps reinforce recognition and rhythm.
With repetition, students will begin to see improvement in both the speed and accuracy of their cursive writing.
