We will begin class by introducing ourselves. I will introduce learners to the proper way of writing capital letters in cursive, including the slanting of letters and paper positioning. Each day I will model cursive letters and provide visual and verbal prompts to the learners as needed. We will learn and practice a few capital letters during each class, one at a time until we are successful (about 5 letters a day and and 6 on the last day). We will practice making them with our fingers first and then independently on lined paper. I will watch their progress and provide feedback when needed as they make their cursive letters. If extra time, we will add some additional practice by making words using the learned cursive letters. Monday = A - E Tuesday = F - J Wednesday = K - O Thursday = P - T Friday = U - Z
Learning Goals
Students will learn to write capital letters in cursive correctly and connect those letters to create words. This will be done by learning 5 new letters each day (6 on the last day).
Monday = A - E Tuesday = F - J Wednesday = K - O Thursday = P - T Friday = U - Z

Teacher expertise and credentials
North Carolina Teaching Certificate in Elementary Education
I have taught cursive writing in the third grade for about 15 years. Many children do not continue writing in cursive once they leave the third grade and then the process is often forgotten. Therefore, when they become adults and need to sign papers with their signature, they often don't know how. There are multiple reasons to learn cursive in today's world.
