What's included in the Yaretzi worksheet

Letters to trace: 7; Capital Y + 6 lowercase
SSA popularity, 2025: #670; Girls' names, United States
Tracing difficulty: steady; Diagonal strokes in Y, z

There is real practice in Yaretzi without it being daunting: all 7 of its letters are different, mixing familiar shapes with one or two that reward a second pass. The diagonal strokes in “Y” and “z” 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 letter “t” reaches the top guide line — a common slip is stopping it at the height of the small letters instead. Because Yaretzi was the #670 girls' name of 2025, a ready-made Yaretzi tracing sheet like this one sees plenty of classroom use.

How each letter in Yaretzi is formed:

Y — Two short slanted lines that meet at the midline like a small v, then one straight line from that meeting point down to the baseline.
a — Curve round like a c, close the circle, then a short line down its right side.
r — A short line down, then trace back up and add a little curved arm over to the right — and stop there.
e — A short bar across the middle, then curve up, over, and round like a c underneath it.
t — A tallish line down that curves gently at the bottom, crossed with a short bar at the midline rather than the top.
z — The same zig-zag drawn half-size between the midline and the baseline.
i — A short line from the midline down to the baseline, then a dot floated above it — body first, dot last.

The tall strokes in Yaretzi come from “Y” and “t” — two of its 7 letters reach the top guide line. The rest are small letters with nothing hanging below the baseline — only the floating dot on “i” sits above the letter body.

At seven letters, Yaretzi is on the long side — only 206 of the 1,918 names here run longer. It is also one of the rarer picks on this site, sitting deeper in the 2025 girls' list yet still ahead of 304 of the 953 girls' names.

Yaretzi was the #670 girls' 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 Yaretzi

The slants in “Y” and “z” deserve their own warm-up row — once those land cleanly, the rest of Yaretzi is familiar ground.
Break Yaretzi into two sittings: 4 letters now, the rest later — 7 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, small, tall, small, small” as the pencil moves — naming each letter's height is the quickest fix for uneven sizing in Yaretzi.
End every session the same way: one Yaretzi on blank paper, no guides — recall is what turns a traced pattern into a learned one.

Customization options

Font style

Choose dotted outlines while your child is still learning where each stroke goes, and switch to solid light-gray once tracing gets confident — writing over the full letterform is the bridge to copying. The first row always shows Yaretzi solid and dark.

Letter size

Small, medium, or large guide lines. Because Yaretzi runs 7 letters, medium or small keeps the whole name on each line; use large for single-letter warm-ups.

Number of practice lines

You choose how many rows of Yaretzi 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.

Yaretzi 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 Yaretzi drop below the baseline, so the dot is the only detail to remember.
