How to Use This Pack

Eight pages of short sentences written in cursive, four on a page, each with a line under it to write it again. The sentences are about everyday things: me, animals, the weather and school, then a page of questions, a page of sentences that end with an exclamation point, a page with commas and a page of names. Children trace each sentence, starting at the dot on each word, then copy it on the line below.

In the Classroom

Read each sentence aloud together before tracing it, so children practice reading cursive too. Point out the capital at the start and the mark at the end. Use one page a day as morning work or a handwriting warm-up.

At Home

Read a sentence together, then let your child trace it and write it on their own. Ask them to make up a sentence of their own and write it on the back.

Tips for Success

  • Start each sentence with a capital
  • Leave a space between words
  • Some capitals join the next letter, some do not
  • Put the period, question mark or exclamation point after the last word
  • Read your sentence back when you finish
