Handwriting Paper: Landscape Handwriting Paper

With taller lines, it can be useful to have the page rotated to a wider (landscape) layout so that the lines are a bit longer. These handwriting pages feature larger line heights turned sideways and are appropriate for preschool, kindergarten or first grade kids just starting their writing practice.

Wide Format Writing Paper Templates for Primary Grades

The landscape format writing paper on this page is meant to help preschool, kindergarten or early elementary grade students who are learning their handwriting skills and need guide lines. All of the templates on this page have taller line widths, so to get longer lines the layout is in landscape orientation at the expense of having fewer lines on the page.These templates have the traditional three-line layout used to learn block or cursive lettering. The three line format has a darker baseline to emphasize the correct place to anchor letter shapes. The dashed middle line is in a lighter color, and the top line is shown in red to emphasize that letter shapes should not exceed this edge.
