In this unit, pupil practise pre-cursive letter formation for all 26 letters of the alphabet. In ‘Year 2: Handwriting: the four joins and break letters, with no lead-ins’, pupils build on this by learning the formation of the four joins and break letters.

In 'Writing lower case letters in print', pupils learnt the letter formation for all 26 lower case print letters. In this unit, pupils  build on this knowledge, learning the pre-cursive formation of all lower case letters.

In this unit, pupils revise how to form all 26 lowercase letters in print. They re-cap on letter familes and the specific features of different letters, such as ascenders and descenders. Pupils also revise the movements involved in forming each letter.
