Tips for each letter
- T
- Adding the middle cross. Capital T has only the top bar; with a cross it becomes an F.
- u
- Rounding the bottom points into a w. Cursive u has two points at the top, not three.
- e
- Making the loop too big, so e looks like l. The loop stays below the midline.
- s
- Writing it like a print s. Cursive s is a point at the top and a small closed belly at the bottom.
- d
- Making a loop on the tall stick. Cursive d goes up and back down on the same line, with no loop.
- a
- Leaving the top open, so a looks like u. Close the circle before you slant down.
- y
- Leaving the loop open below the line. Bring the tail back up so it crosses at the baseline.
