- The words start with a lead in on the line and finish with a lead out.
- The cursive letter join used depends on which letter is joining to which letter.
- You don't lift your pencil when forming the joins.
- You only lift your pencil once the letter string is complete or there is a break letter within the letter string.
Keywords
Suffix - a letter or group of letters at the end of a word which creates another word
Noun - a naming word for a person, place or thing
Join - how the letters are connected together
Letter string - a group of letters that are written together in a word
Common misconception
The words in this lesson are over five letters long, so children might struggle to be consistent with the letter formation or the joins used.
Model looking at the words carefully before writing them. Point out which letters have ascenders or descenders and what that will mean for the formation of the letters.
