What this lesson teaches

Modern school cursive keeps capitals simple: most are close to their print shapes, written with flowing strokes, and many do not join to the letter that follows — a small pen lift after a capital is perfectly correct.

Capitals fill the full height from baseline to top line. Give them room.

What is on the sheet

  1. Capitals: A B C
    A B C
    Write the three capitals with spaces between them, as in the model. Full height, steady slant.
  2. Capitals: M N
    M N
    The capital arches. Keep the legs parallel and both letters exactly the same height.
  3. Name: Anna
    Anna
    A capital followed by joined lowercase — the pattern of every name you will ever write. The capital A may stand alone; the lowercase letters flow together.

How to use it

Print at 100% on US Letter — not “fit to page”. The ruling is classroom size, and scaling the page down makes every letter the wrong size. The 10 cm scale at the foot of the sheet is there to check against: if it measures short, the print was scaled.

The sheet holds 3 exercises, each with a model row in full ink, a pale row to trace over, and two empty ruled rows of your own.
