This Grade KG alphabet worksheet on Tall, Short, and Below-Line Letters helps young learners understand letter height and placement in handwriting. Recognising whether a letter is tall (goes above the middle line), short (fits between lines), or below the line (goes below the baseline) builds strong early writing foundations.
Designed for Kindergarten students, this worksheet includes engaging matching, sorting, fill-in-the-blanks, and multiple choice activities. Children practise identifying letters such as b, g, f, d, m, p, h, a, c, y and many more based on their handwriting height. This visual and structural awareness strengthens both alphabet recognition and neat writing habits.
Understanding tall, short, and below-line letters is essential for early writing success because:
1. It improves proper letter formation.
2. It develops spatial awareness on writing lines.
3. It reduces letter reversal and size confusion.
4. It builds neat and structured handwriting skills.
This worksheet includes four structured alphabet activities:
🧠 Exercise 1 – Match the Letters
Students match letters (b, f, g, d, m, p, h, a, c, y) to Tall, Short, or Below-line categories.
✏️ Exercise 2 – Sort the Letters
Learners sort letters (h, t, n, q, o, e, j, d, y, i, k, p, l, w, g) into Tall, Short, and Below line groups.
📋 Exercise 3 – Fill in the Blanks
Students write T for Tall, S for Short, and B for Below-line for letters like l, x, g, u, k, j, r, y, t, and s.
📝 Exercise 4 – Multiple Choice Questions
Children look at each letter and tick whether it is Tall, Short, or Below-line, reinforcing handwriting awareness.
