What's included in the Amos worksheet

Letters to trace: 4; Capital A + 3 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #730; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: challenging; Diagonal strokes in A

Amos is a workout for a young writer: all 4 of its letters are different, and enough of them use the strokes that come last to make this a name worth repeating. The diagonal strokes in “A” are the trickiest part — slanted lines are usually the last strokes young writers control, so expect extra passes there. Because Amos was the #730 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Amos tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

The letters of Amos, in the order they are written:

A — Two slanted lines that lean into each other from a point at the top, then a bar across the middle to join them.
m — A short line down, then up and over one hump, and up and over a second hump — two humps, evenly sized.
o — The same closed circle drawn half-size, sitting between the midline and the baseline.
s — The same snake drawn half-size between the midline and the baseline.

After the full-height capital A, nothing in Amos climbs to the top guide line again. The rest stay between the midline and the baseline with nothing hanging below, which gives a finished row of Amos an even, tidy silhouette.

At four letters, Amos sits on the short side — 257 names here share that length, and only 60 are shorter. It is also one of the rarer picks on this site, sitting deeper in the 2025 boys' list yet still ahead of 254 of the 965 boys' names.

Amos was the #730 boys' name in the U.S. for 2025, per the Social Security Administration's public-domain baby-names data. The worksheet itself is one page — US Letter, A4-friendly — ruled with classic three-line handwriting guides plus a descender line below.

Tips for tracing Amos

Open each session with “A” on its own: slanted lines are the strokes children control last, so isolating them first makes Amos feel shorter than it is.
Say the letter heights out loud as a chant while tracing — “tall, small, small, small” — the size pattern of Amos sticks faster when it has words.
Amos fills its lines fast — turn the final line into a challenge round: the neatest Amos of the day.
End every session the same way: one Amos on blank paper, no guides — recall is what turns a traced pattern into a learned one.

Customization options

Font style

The dotted style breaks each letter of Amos into a traceable outline; the solid light-gray style shows the whole letterform to write over. Most families start dotted and move to gray as pencil control improves — the dark example row stays either way.

Letter size

Three guide-line heights. Bigger lines mean fewer repetitions per page but easier control, and Amos fits comfortably at all three — most families begin large and shrink from there.

Number of practice lines

You choose how many rows of Amos print: 1 to 12 under the example row. New tracers do better with fewer, larger lines; confident ones can fill a full twelve-line page.

Does Amos have any letters that go below the line?

No — every letter in Amos sits between the baseline and the top guide line, with no tails below the line and no dots to add afterward. That makes Amos feel especially tidy to trace, and it's a good name for reinforcing consistent letter height early on.

What letter size works best for tracing Amos?
