CURSIVE HANDWRITING
Learning to write in cursive handwriting is one of the highlights of third
grade. The links on this page will show you the correct formation of each
cursive letter.
After we learn the letters in class, please practice writing at home. Remember
to practice writing the letters the proper way. PRACTICE MAKES PERMANENT! If
you practice incorrectly, you will always write incorrectly.
When I teach cursive I will not be going in alphabetical order. Instead, I
will teach letters with similar strokes. KidsZone.ws had a great way to group
the letters to make learning easy and fun:
-
Rockin' Round Letters: a, d, g, q, c
-
Climb and Slide Letters: i, u, w, t
-
Loopy Letters: e, l, h, k, b, f, j
-
Lumpy Letters: n, m, v, x
-
Mix and Match Letters: p, r, s, o, y, z
