Cursive Writing Practice: Letters a, b, and c

Introduction to Cursive: a, b, and c

Welcome to cursive writing! Today, we will practice our first three letters: a, b, and c. Use the space below to trace each letter carefully. Follow the dotted lines to learn the correct stroke order.

Tracing Practice

Letter a:  (Dotted cursive 'a' here) 

Letter b:  (Dotted cursive 'b' here) 

Letter c:  (Dotted cursive 'c' here) 



Activity 1: Compare and Contrast

Look closely at the cursive letters a and c you just traced.
  1. List one way that the formation of the letter a is exactly like the letter c.

  1. List one major difference between how you finish writing a letter a compared to a letter c.



Activity 2: Word Builders (Fill-in-the-Gaps)

Look at the images below. Each word is missing its first cursive letter (a, b, or c). Trace the dotted letters provided to complete the words, then write the full word independently on the line next to it.
