Tip: download the PDF for Letter or A4 paper, print it at 100% and use a pencil or crayon.

Up nextCursive Letter A →

All 26 small cursive letters drawn large, each with a green 1 where the pencil starts and arrows that show the way round. Many begin with a lead-in stroke from the baseline, which is what joins them to the letter before. Practise the letters in families: those that start like c (a, d, g, o, q), the tall loops (b, h, k, l, f) and the humps (m, n, v, x, y, z).

Printing tips

  • Print at 100% (actual size) so the guide lines stay the right height.
  • Tilt the paper slightly, the same way the letters slope, so writing feels natural.
  • Trace each model with a finger first, saying the strokes out loud, then use a pencil.
