Will questions
How many strokes does it take to write will in cursive?
2 strokes: one continuous stroke for the letters, then dot the i. Inside a word the pencil stays on the paper; dots and crosses are added once the word is finished.
Which letters in will are joined at the midline?
The w. This letter ends with a short bridge stroke at the midline, so the next letter starts from the top rather than from the baseline. That is what makes "will" look different from a word with only baseline joins.
Is will capitalized in cursive?
Only at the start of a sentence or in a title. In running text "will" is written in lowercase, all letters joined. The capitalized form Will is shown above for sentence openers and headings.
Is will an easy word to write in cursive?
Yes. None of its letters (w, i, l) is among the tricky ones (r, s, f, k, b), which makes "will" a good early practice word.
