Start at the top and pull straight down. These are the simplest letters and they set the habit every other letter needs: top to bottom.
Every one starts the same way — a curve up and around to the left, like a c. Learn c well and a, d, g and q are almost free.
Down, then retrace UP the same line, then over the hump. Children start the hump in the air beside the stem — watch for that and send them back to the line.
Straight strokes that meet at a sharp point. No curves. Slow down where the strokes meet so the point stays crisp.
Each of these is its own shape, so they come last and one at a time. Take them slowly — there is no family pattern to lean on.
Each has the diagrams, a tracing row per letter, and the model word.
Every handwriting lesson whose slides animate. These now carry a prev/next strip so you can walk them end to end.
