Chinese handwriting worksheets for HSK 3.0 Level 1

This workbook teaches and provides practice in the 300 Chinese characters included in the corresponding level of the new HSK 3.0 exam.

It is designed for learners who want not only to recognize characters when reading, but to handwrite them correctly, understand their structure and gradually develop lasting Chinese writing skills.

What is in the workbook?

For each of the 300 characters:

  • Stroke order —a clear illustration of the sequence in which to write the character.
  • Pinyin —the transcription used in mainland China, with an option to hear a native speaker’s pronunciation recording.
  • Palladius —the Cyrillic Chinese transcription system used for a century and a half.
  • Zhuyin —Chinese pronunciation represented in the national phonetic alphabet.
  • Character radical information —the radical, its Kangxi Dictionary classification number and stroke count.

The workbook combines practical handwriting exercises with compact reference material introducing different pronunciation systems and the basics of traditional character classification.

An extra page for independent practice

Each file includes an additional blank page ruled with米字格 (mǐzìgé) —a special grid with horizontal, vertical and diagonal guides widely used in Chinese schools for handwriting instruction.

You can print this page separately and use it repeatedly to practice an individual character.

Digital format

After purchase, you receive a digital workbook file to print or use on a compatible electronic device, including a graphics tablet with a choice of brushes.

Stroke-order animations and pronunciation recordings are available through the links accompanying the characters.
