How to use it

  1. Lowercase g: Make an a shape, then go straight down below the baseline and loop back up to the left.
  2. Uppercase G: Start at the baseline, loop up to the top, then make a large curve back down and finish with a small loop.
  3. Trace the gray letters slowly, then write on your own in the blank row.

Good to know

  • g joins from the end of its lower loop.
  • Lowercase g belongs to the downcurve letters (a, c, d, g, o, q); teaching letters in these groups makes them easier to learn.
  • Practice words on the sheet: goat, gift, green. Say each word aloud while writing it, then check that every letter sits on the baseline.
  • Keep the paper slanted slightly and let the letters lean to the right.
  • Short, daily practice (5–10 minutes) works better than one long session; trace first, then write from memory in the blank row.
