Beginners Cursive Handwriting: Uppercase Letters

This class is for beginning cursive writers who have learned to write lowercase letters. I have been trained in the award-winning Handwriting Without Tears method of handwriting and approach writing letters with a similar philosophy. Each week will focus on a separate set of letters and is independent from previous classes.  

I follow the Demo, Guide, Do approach to teaching cursive and will begin by demonstrating how to write the letter. Then, I will guide the learners through the steps as we write it together. Finally, the learners will write it on their own. I will also model the correct sequence of steps frequently throughout the class. Since the ability to connect letters correctly is one of the hallmarks of cursive handwriting, we will practice connecting our highlighted letter to others so that we form words and sentences. As such, learners will want to know how to write the lowercase alphabet in order to be successful in class.

I move through the letters in alphabetical order and at the pace of the learners in each class, so the schedule for each class will differ slightly. We cover multiple letters in each class, so only the next letter to be covered is listed below for each group. Additional letters will be covered, however.
