Lowercase h in Cursive
Watch the lowercase h being written, then follow the numbered steps. Sweep up from the baseline into a loop, then come back down through the crossing point.
Step by step
- Start on the baseline and swing up into a tall loop that reaches the top line.
- Come back down the left side of the loop to the baseline.
- Retrace up a little and roll over into a hump at the midline.
- Come down to the baseline and finish with an exit stroke.
Tip: Make the hump as tall as an n so the h doesn't turn into an l and an i.
