Cursive Letter E Worksheets
These cursive letter E worksheets give children an opportunity to practice their capital E, lowercase e and short words that start with E. The page is filled with fun cursive tracing worksheets for kids who enjoy learning to write at home or in the classroom.
Since the letter E is one of the most common letters in the English language, it is important to get into the habit of writing this letter properly and legibly.
Although the lowercase e may seem like a small and simple letter to form, it can be difficult to write it properly when putting together connected cursive words.
The loop should be loose enough to be easily read, especially if the lowercase e is put together with other small cursive letters.

Choose a letter to practice cursive handwriting from A to Z.
This worksheet provides children with an opportunity to practice their cursive E letters on a larger scale.
The capital E is bigger, while the lowercase e uses a looser loop that requires more control to write.
The bigger size is helpful because the lowercase version of the letter E can get cramped when written too tightly, making it harder to read, especially in the middle of a cursive sentence.
This page encourages slowing down when writing to keep the letterforms loose and the lines light to achieve cursive writing that is easy to read.

The letter E has an interesting history that dates back to the Greek alphabet, where the letter was called epsilon and was one of the earliest letters to be given a specific shape. The letter eventually changed as it entered the Latin language and other writing systems. The printed letter E takes those changes into account and puts the letter into a modern day form that is made up of straight lines. However, the cursive version of the letter E takes what we know about the printed character and changes it into a flowing script.
This change can make the cursive letter E challenging for children to master, since they are likely to already be familiar with the printed version of the letter. The cursive E requires control and a careful hand to make the loop at the beginning of each word or letter combination, and it also needs to leave space between the letters for them to be clearly formed.
