Escritura cursiva para niños de 13 a 18 años: curso intensivo de primavera

Each lesson will be structured as follows:  25 minutes of handwriting practice; followed by a 10 minute break; and ending with 25 additional minutes of handwriting practice.

Each lesson will include a demonstration and several worksheets. Students will be required to spend an ample amount of time in between classes practicing what they have learned. The worksheets are to be used for guided practice of what was covered in the corresponding lesson. The focus of this class will be learning the mechanics and art of standard, cursive handwriting.

During the four sessions offered, all 26 letters of the alphabet (in both their upper- and lower-case forms), as well as some punctuation marks, will be demonstrated. In addition to assigned homework, each student will have the opportunity to submit their work for review and to receive suggestions from the teacher for possible improvement at any point during the section.

Resources, including links to articles and videos of interest and vocabulary lists and other notes prepared by the teacher, will be posted on the classroom page. Students will be given the opportunity to have their work displayed on the classroom page, as well.
