Finger and handwriting tracing:
Trace letter E's in upper and lower case with your index finger as you also sound out the
letter. Invite the children to do the same on their coloring
page or handwriting worksheet.
Encourage the children to trace the dotted letter, and explain the direction of the arrows and point to the numbers with arrows that help them trace the
letter correctly. Count out loud as you trace so children become aware of how the
number order aids them in the writing process.

letter E's in upper and lower case on the coloring page or extended
