The Homeschool Experience at THE Hive Community Center

For new or continuing students. This class will be individualized to match the place and pace of each student. We will learn and/or review, then practice the formation of individual cursive letters - lower-case first then capitals (upper-case), with focus on each student being able to write their name in cursive. I’m hoping that connecting letter to letter will begin on the first day to include short words using letters that are formed similarly. We’ll be learning the updated Zaner-Bloser style of cursive handwriting. The letters slant to the right with the tail of each letter connecting to the tail of the next letter. It also has capital letters that are simplified. Students will also practice reading cursive. Parents: This is the updated style of the one that many of you grew up on in grade school. Fun fact: did you know that practicing cursive tends to improve print and overall fine motor skills as well as coordination?

**Daily practice/homework of about 5 minutes will be requested to help ensure adequate progress.**
