What's included in the Jordan worksheet

Letters to trace: 6; Capital J + 5 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #131; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; No diagonal strokes

There is real practice in Jordan without it being daunting: all 6 of its letters are different, mixing familiar shapes with one or two that reward a second pass. It starts with a capital “J”, which joins a straight stroke to a curve — draw the line first, then add the curve to it. The tall letter “d” reaches the top guide line — a common slip is stopping it at the height of the small letters instead. Because Jordan was the #131 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Jordan tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

How each letter in Jordan is formed:

J — A big line down that curves to the left at the bottom, like a hook catching the baseline.
o — The same closed circle drawn half-size, sitting between the midline and the baseline.
r — A short line down, then trace back up and add a little curved arm over to the right — and stop there.
d — Curve round like a c first, then a tall line up on its right side and straight back down.
a — Curve round like a c, close the circle, then a short line down its right side.
n — A short line down, then back up and over a single hump to the baseline.

The tall strokes in Jordan come from “J” and “d” — two of its 6 letters reach the top guide line. The rest stay between the midline and the baseline with nothing hanging below, which gives a finished row of Jordan an even, tidy silhouette.

Jordan runs six letters, the single most common name length on this site (562 of the 1,918 names). Its popularity is middle-of-the-list for 2025 boys' names — still ahead of 834 of the 965 here.

Jordan was the #131 boys' name in the U.S. for 2025, per the Social Security Administration's public-domain baby-names data. Every worksheet is a single US Letter page (prints on A4 too) with three-line handwriting guides and a descender line.

Tips for tracing Jordan

Chunk it as “Jor” + “dan”: a short pause in the middle of Jordan keeps attention fresh through all six letters.
Give Jordan its height song: “tall, small, small, tall, small, small”. Chanting the sizes while tracing keeps tall letters tall and small letters small.
End every session the same way: one Jordan on blank paper, no guides — recall is what turns a traced pattern into a learned one.

Customization options

Font style

Two tracing styles: dotted outlines — the classic preschool form — or solid light-gray letters for writing directly over the full shape. Whichever you pick, the example row keeps Jordan in solid dark letters for reference.

Letter size

Small, medium, or large guide lines. Jordan fits at every size — start large for first attempts and step down as pencil control improves.

Number of practice lines

You choose how many rows of Jordan 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.
