Why these cursive worksheets
- The cursive your child sees at school. Every letter is set in the traditional US school cursive (Zaner-Bloser style), not a calligraphy or wedding font. The models on screen and on paper are identical. Using D'Nealian or New American Cursive? The lowercase letters and joins carry over.
- Three-line guides on every row. Top line, dashed midline and baseline, at the same proportions as classroom handwriting paper, so tall letters, short letters and descenders land where they should.
- Trace, copy, then write. Each row starts with a solid model, continues with grey dashed letters to trace, and ends with room to write without help.
- Really free. Every PDF downloads directly. Print as many copies as you need for your family or your classroom.
