How to Write the Lowercase Cursive h
Start the cursive h at the baseline. Draw a smooth upward stroke that reaches slightly above the middle line. Curve the stroke to the right and bring it down below the middle line to form a loop.
Continue the stroke upwards and then bring it down to finish. End with a smooth tail extending to the right to connect easily to the next letter. Focus on making each stroke smooth and controlled. Ensure the upward stroke is consistent in size and the loop is balanced. Avoid making the loop too large or small sharp angles. Make sure your lines are rounded and flowing.
How to Connect Lowercase Cursive Letter h
Connecting the cursive h starts with its tall upward stroke. Follow it with a smooth loop that curves down and back up. The tail extends to the right, making it easy to link to the next letter. Focus on steady, even strokes for better connections. Regular practice will make your writing flow naturally.
How to Write Uppercase Cursive H
Start the uppercase cursive H with a tall, straight line from the top line down to the baseline. Next, make a small upward curve to the right at the top. From there, bring the stroke down, creating a tall, straight line parallel to the first one. Complete the H by connecting the two lines with a rounded arch in the middle, flowing smoothly and without sharp angles.
How to Connect Uppercase Cursive Letter H
When connecting the uppercase cursive H, focus on the fluid transition between strokes. The right side of the H will have a slight tail that flows into the next letter. For smooth connections, practice joining it with words like “a” or “e” in words like “He” or “Hat.” Aim for a seamless flow, ensuring the stroke moves naturally from one letter to the next.
Practicing the Cursive H Worksheet
You can start practicing by tracing the letter. Tracing helps you understand how the letter should look and flow. Once you feel comfortable then try writing the letter freehand.
