How to use it

  1. Lowercase v: Overcurve up to the midline, come down to the baseline, curve back up, and finish with a bridge at the midline.
  2. Uppercase V: An overcurve start, down to the baseline, and back up to the top.
  3. Trace the gray letters slowly, then write on your own in the blank row.

Good to know

  • v ends at the midline, like b, o and w.
  • Lowercase v belongs to the overcurve letters (n, m, v, x, y, z); teaching letters in these groups makes them easier to learn.
  • Practice words on the sheet: van, vest, vine. 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.
