The lowercase v sits between the midline and the baseline and is formed in two strokes: pull a short slanted line down and to the right to the baseline, then push a matching slant back up to the midline on the right. The two strokes meet at a sharp point at the baseline. Uppercase V follows exactly the same two-stroke pattern but spans from the top line to the baseline, with a more pronounced downward angle on each side.
The sharp bottom point of v often gets rounded into something that looks like u, so tracing van or vest at a larger size — where the baseline is clearly visible — helps children aim the pencil precisely at the line before reversing direction. Use the three-line guide setting to keep the midline, baseline, and bottom margin visible at a glance.
Trace and copy Vv
Faded guide letters to trace, then blank lines to write the letter from memory on the same page.
Words that feature Vv
Practice the letter inside real words like van, vine, vest, so it transfers from drills to writing.
Three-line and four-line guides
Match the baseline structure your handwriting program already uses, on Letter or A4 paper.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I stop my child rounding the bottom of v into a u?
- Encourage children to think of v as a pointy mountain peak turned upside down, with the tip touching the baseline like a pin on a map. Slowing the stroke just before reaching the baseline — almost pausing at the lowest point — builds the habit of forming a clean angle rather than a curve.
- Is the uppercase V just a taller lowercase v?
- Yes, in manuscript printing they share the same two-stroke structure; the uppercase form simply uses the full line height from top line to baseline. This makes V one of the easier uppercase letters for children who have already mastered the lowercase shape.
- Are the letter V worksheets free to print?
- Yes. Creating and previewing letter V worksheets is free, and you can screenshot the preview to print. A Pro plan removes the watermark and unlocks high-quality PDF and PNG export.
