Write countersign time

I feel just fine let's write the time away it's the right time hi I'm Shannon Losey and I teach boys and girls just like you today we're going to begin an exciting new adventure we're going to learn cursive writing and I'm here to help you you're going to find that some cursive letters are very similar to manuscript while others are very different okay are you ready let's get started slow see Miss Lucy can I help can I help absolutely this is Bob hi everybody watch what I can do I can write under curse slant spots check strokes uppercase lowercase loops okay I think they get the idea let's just say that Bob is going to help us learn cursive writing that is correct let's see I introduced myself and Bob to you and I also mentioned we're going to go for manuscripts into cursive writing but I think I'm forgetting something overseas of course it's the right time folder you may have a folder similar to this one with sleeves inside to hold your papers but whatever you use it would be nice if you kept all of your cursive writing together that way you'll always know where to find your work and you'll be able to keep track of your progress I'm sure your teacher can help you find your folder now take a look at my desk what do you see all you see are the things that need to write with and that's paper and in your case a sharpened pencil I'm going to use this marker so you can see more clearly what I write when you're writing please only use a pencil and not a marker now I'd like for you to be sitting up nice and straight in your chair with both feet flat on the floor while you do that Bob has a message for you hi boys and girls it's time to write in cursive here's the same message written in manuscript let's read it together hi boys and girls it's time to write in cursive as you can see some of the cursive letters look the same as the manuscript and some don't let's match up some manuscript letters with cursive letters Bob let's get started okay follow along with me and match up the manuscript letters to the cursive letters the first letter is the letter I as an ice match up the manuscript letter I they look pretty similar don't they now let's move on to our next letter I know you recognize the manuscript letter Z it's Z as in zebra now find the letter Z in cursive here's a good example of a cursive letter that looks nothing like the letter in manuscript did you find the correct cursive letter y bet you did let's move down to the next manuscript letter G as in goat now let's match it up with the curse of D the g's look pretty similar can you find the next cursive letter it's the letter J as in jester let's draw a line over to the cursive J and we find that the cursive and the manuscript J both have dots on top now let's match up the last cursive letter it's Y as in yellow match up the two wives as you continue to write in cursive you'll find more similarities and differences between manuscripts and cursive letters teachers keep practicing the recognition of cursive letters by putting together matching manuscripts and cursive letters of your own now I'm going to read a sentence that I want you to try to read along with me I don't want you to write this sentence yet so keep your pencils down Bob I need your assistance here read this sentence along with me if you can the crazy brown fox jumped over the grassy hill quickly I know this sentence sounds like a silly thing to say but if you look closely this sentence has every letter in the alphabet teachers write the sentence up on the board so they'll have plenty of time to copy it later on I want you to try and write the sentence even though you haven't written in cursive yet be sure to write your name and put today's date on the paper when you're finished then place your work inside your folder so you'll always know where it is I know this may be very difficult for you but that's okay because we're just starting as we progress in cursive writing you'll be able to see your improvement this is your first try and I want you to save it we'll compare it to your cursive writing when we finish learning the cursive alphabet I want to write some more inclusive okay write for me just three words in manuscripts and then in cursive the words are I see it that's all that's all okay here we go I see it what are the two main differences you see for manuscript writing to cursive writing first in cursive writing if all the letters are joined together as you can see in manuscript the letters are separated now what's the other difference between the two in cursive writing the letters are slanted forward to the right whereas in manuscripts the letters are vertical or straight up and down before you can start with cursive writing you need to have the correct paper position take your writing paper and place it in front of you on your desk position the paper straight up and down like this if you're right-handed you want to line up this bottom left side corner so it points to your tummy by turning your paper to the left like this your other hand in this case your left hand will hold your paper down like this and you'll write like this now for those of you who write with your left hand turn your paper back to the center like this and now line up the paper so that your bottom right corner is pointing to your tummy by turning your paper to the right like this now hold the paper down with your right hand this is the position for left-handed writing so whether you're left-handed or you're right-handed this is the paper position for cursive writing before we begin writing our basic cursive strokes let's get familiar with the lines on your writing paper Bob the bottom line is called the base line the little line is called the mid line and the top is called yep that top line Bob is now going to show you the basic strokes along with examples of cursive letters that have these strokes in them don't try to write the letters just pay close attention to the basic strokes okay Bob let's write the first cursive stroke we'll practice is called the under curve stroke you're on Bob the under curve starts at the base line and curves up to the midline like in the letters W and ah how's that Miss Losey perfect I want you to watch me make an under curve stroke first and then we'll do it together since I'm right handed I position the paper this way to my left and hold down the paper with my left hand if you're left-handed you position the paper this way and hold it down with your right hand I start from the baseline and stop at the midline the under curve stroke is the beginning stroke for the under curve letters now pick up your pencil and write with me start from the base line and finish at the midline how did you do let's make another nice under curve stroke and under curve again start from the base line and under curve teachers you may want to check the position of the students papers especially for the left-handed students watch to see that they're not developing a hook like this Bob let's continue with another basic stroke this is a slant stroke the slant stroke starts at the midline then comes down to the base line blank in the letters you watch me first as I make the slant stroke start at the midline and then come down to the baseline now I'm right-handed so when I write a slant stroke I pulled down toward my tummy like this now pick up your pencil and let's make this slant stroke together remember the direction you're pulling let's write a few more pull down the slant stroke from the midline to the base line again and pull one more slant and pull so here we have the under curve stroke and the slant stroke let's move on to another basic stroke it's called the down curve stroke Bob cursive letters using the down curve start at the midline and curve down to the base line like in the letters a and C let's practice making just the down curves if you need to move your paper up to start with a new writing space go ahead my paper is ready to write okay pick up your pencil and write with me start at the midline and curve down to the base line good let's write another and give yourself some space between each down curve from the midline and down curve to the base line again start at the midline down curve to the base line nice job there's one more basic stroke it's called the over curve stroke put your pencil down for now and watch Bob don't try to write the letters just the over curved stroke this time the over curved stroke starts at the base line then curves up to the midline like in the letters M and B that's great Bob let's write the over curved stroke together now let's take a look we start at the base line and curve up to the midline let's write it again base line and curve up and write it one more time base line and curve up now take a look at the down curve and the over curve stroke the curve looks the same doesn't it but the down curve starts at the midline and curves down while the over curve starts at the base line and curves up now shift your paper if you have to and write two more over curved strokes with me ready baseline and up one more baseline and up very good okay put your pencil down let's review what we've done there are four basic strokes to cursive writing the under curve the slant the down curve and the over curve practice these basic strokes so you'll be ready to start writing letters Bob do you know what we'll be doing in our next program if I guess right can I go on a cruise right here with me in our next program we will use the four basic strokes to write cursive letters teachers remember to have the boys and girls sign and date their work before putting it in their folder well I think it's time to say goodbye Bob goodbye see you next time bye bye it's the right loop's dots and lines I feel just fine let's write the time away it's the right time you
