Cursive Letter I Worksheets
These cursive letter I worksheets are a great way to practice capital I, lowercase i, and words that begin with I. This printable page focuses on cursive writing, tracing letter style, and simple letter formation at home or in the classroom.
The letter I is actually quite simple, but it’s one of those letters that you have to get exactly right, especially the lowercase version, or it starts to look like another letter entirely. The lowercase i also has a dot that needs to be practiced.

This page gives kids extra space to practice the cursive letter I by itself.
The capital I is easy enough, but be sure to make the lowercase i short and close to the writing line. Using this larger space helps kids slow down and make sure that the lowercase i is not too tall or too close to the next letter. Both of these mistakes can cause the lowercase i to look like a different letter. If the lowercase i becomes too tall, it can start to look like the other letters in the word, but if the lowercase i is too short or cramped, it may become hard to see in words.

The letter I has an interesting history, because it used to be much closer to the letter J. The two letters were often mixed together in the past, so it’s not surprising that they are right next to each other in our modern day cursive alphabet. It’s also helpful writing practice to make the connection between I and J, because it serves as a good warm up to the letter J. The cursive I is much simpler than cursive J, but both letters still need careful spacing and clear form. The connection between I and J also shows how their cursive styles are similar, even if they are very different letters in print.
