Tips for each letter
- M
- Making the humps all the same height. In school cursive the humps of M are about even; keep them tall.
- a
- Leaving the top open, so a looks like u. Close the circle before you slant down.
- t
- Making t as tall as l, or adding a loop. Cursive t is shorter than the tall letters and has no loop.
- e
- Making the loop too big, so e looks like l. The loop stays below the midline.
- o
- Dropping the ending to the baseline. Cursive o ends high, so the next letter starts from the midline.
