Donna Young's Cursive Handwriting Practice

Donna Young's Cursive Handwriting Lessons - Cursive Z

I made these cursive handwriting practice sheets with the letter style shown in the image below. I have added new sets to Cursive Z. The sets are on the pages Connecting Cursive Capitals and Practice Writing Words in Cursive Handwriting. The cursive animations that begin on this page Donna Young's Cursive Animations are also "Cursive Z."

The worksheets are in two groups - "All Tracing" and "Less Tracing". The On-goinbg worksheets that I add once in a while to this page have, more or less, one line of tracing and one line of no tracing, .

On the "All Tracing" sheets, the words and letters are "faded" so that your children can trace them.

The "Less Tracing" sheets will have blank spaces for your children to write the words on their own.

I have been asked quite a few times over the years, "How did I make the handwriting sheets." I made the cursive worksheets on this page with a font and a paint program. The letters in the font is pictured below. Notice that the letters do not join. How they are typed in the image is how they look when typed. I used the paint program to positin and join each letter in the worksheets.

Ongoing- New Worksheets for This Set

I am working on new handwriting worksheets beginning May 4, 2010. Each worksheet takes a while to do, meanwhile; I am going to make plans for the worksheets and try to complete 2 or more each week. If I wasn't so busy, I could make more, but it is gardening season! - Donna Young.

I have two penmanship worksheets finished so far featuring the letters A & D. I am using the same blue and pink lined background and two-lessons per sheet format. Below are the completed worksheets.
