Tips for each letter
- s
- Writing it like a print s. Cursive s is a point at the top and a small closed belly at the bottom.
- i
- Stopping to dot the i in the middle of a word. Finish the word first, then dot.
- 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.
- r
- Rounding the top so r looks like an i or an n. The small flat step at the top is what makes the r.
