How to use it
- Lowercase x: Overcurve up to the midline, come down to the baseline, then cross with a separate slant stroke.
- Uppercase X: Two separate curved strokes that cross in the middle.
- Trace the gray letters slowly, then write on your own in the blank row.
Good to know
- Cross the x after finishing the word.
- Lowercase x 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: xylophone, fox, box. 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.
