Hiragana Writing Practice Worksheets | Japanese Stroke Order Sheets for Beginners

Ribbit — ESL/EFL Worksheet Resource

This 25-page hiragana writing practice pack covers the basic hiragana chart plus the voiced (dakuten) and p-sound (handakuten) characters, three characters per page. Each row shows the character, its romaji, the number of strokes, a stroke-order strip, and a grid of boxes to trace and write it. A picture of a Japanese word that starts with the character sits beside every row, labelled in hiragana: あひる (duck) for あ, いちご (strawberry) for い, とけい (clock) for と, and so on. The basic characters run from あ to を and ん, and the later pages cover characters such as じ, ず, ぜ, ば, び, ぶ and ぽ. The sheets are designed for beginners of any age, including older ESL students learning Japanese as a second language and heritage learners.
