How to write lowercase f

The small f takes 2 strokes, while the capital F takes 3 strokes. Follow the numbers on the sheet:

1. Start at the top right and curve over to the left, then straight down to the baseline in a walking-stick shape.

2. Lift and cross the stem from left to right at the small-letter height.

A common mistake with F and f

A bottom bar sneaks in, which makes the F look like an E. The F has just two arms.

Letters that look like F

F looks like E without the bottom bar. Lowercase f and t both have a crossbar, but f has a curved hook at the top.

Words to trace that start with F

Once the letter feels easy, practise it in real words: fish, frog, flower, fox and fire. Type any of them into the generator and print bubble, dotted and blank rows, for example fish.

How to write capital F

  1. Draw a straight line down from the top to the bottom line.
  2. Lift and draw the top bar from the stem to the right.
