What's included in the Kendrick worksheet

Letters to trace: 8; Capital K + 7 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #535; Boys' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: challenging; Diagonal strokes in K, k

Kendrick packs real handwriting practice into 8 letters: the capital “K” is only the start, and several strokes further in are ones children usually master last. The diagonal strokes in “K” and “k” are the trickiest part — slanted lines are usually the last strokes young writers control, so expect extra passes there. Remind your child to finish “i” with the dot — dots and crosses are added last, after the letter body. The tall letters “d” and “k” reach the top guide line — a common slip is stopping them at the height of the small letters instead. Because Kendrick was the #535 boys' name of 2025, a ready-made Kendrick tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

How each letter in Kendrick is formed:

K — A big line down, then two slanted lines from the right: one kicks in to touch the middle of the line, the other kicks back out to the bottom corner. Lowercase k is the capital drawn with a taller back and smaller kicks — one of the few letters where learning the capital nearly teaches the small form.
e — A short bar across the middle, then curve up, over, and round like a c underneath it.
n — A short line down, then back up and over a single hump to the baseline.
d — Curve round like a c first, then a tall line up on its right side and straight back down.
r — A short line down, then trace back up and add a little curved arm over to the right — and stop there.
i — A short line from the midline down to the baseline, then a dot floated above it — body first, dot last.
c — The same single open curve as the capital, drawn half-size between the midline and the baseline.
k — A tall line down, then the same two little kicks — in to the midline and back out to the baseline.

Watch the skyline of Kendrick: “K”, “d” and “k” reach the top guide line, three tall letters out of 8. The rest are small letters with nothing hanging below the baseline — only the floating dot on “i” sits above the letter body.

Kendrick is one of the long ones: just 206 of the 1,918 names on this site run eight letters or more. It is also one of the rarer picks on this site, sitting deeper in the 2025 boys' list yet still ahead of 441 of the 965 boys' names.

Kendrick was the #535 boys' name in the U.S. for 2025, per the Social Security Administration's public-domain baby-names data. Each sheet prints as a single page on US Letter or A4, carrying three-line handwriting guides with a fourth descender line underneath.

Tips for tracing Kendrick

The slants in “K” and “k” deserve their own warm-up row — once those land cleanly, the rest of Kendrick is familiar ground.
Break Kendrick into two sittings: 4 letters now, the rest later — 8 letters at once is where early tracers tire and shapes slump.
Teach "body first, dot last" with “i” — finish the downstroke, lift, and only then place the dot.
Call out “tall, small, small, tall, small, small, small, tall” as the pencil moves — naming each letter's height is the quickest fix for uneven sizing in Kendrick.
Finish each session with one try writing Kendrick on blank paper — tracing builds the motor pattern, writing from memory locks it in.

Customization options

Font style

The dotted style breaks each letter of Kendrick 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

Pick from three letter sizes. A longer name like Kendrick keeps all 8 letters on one line at medium or small; on large, use the lines for a few letters at a time instead.

Number of practice lines

You choose how many rows of Kendrick 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.

How should my child handle the dotted letters in Kendrick?

Kendrick contains “i”, which is finished with a floating dot. Teach the sequence "body first, dot last": trace the stroke down, then lift the pencil and place the dot. None of the letters in Kendrick drop below the baseline, so the dot is the only detail to remember.
