I was excited to receive this book, but my excitement turned to disappointment as soon as I opened it. I thought that for the price this book would teach cursive. By teach I mean emphasize technique, perhaps break letters down and give practice sheets for parts of letters. At a minimum I expected to see a lot of arrows and guides on how to form the letters. It turns out that it is just a workbook with some letters and lines to reprint them on. I saw nothing that I could not print off of the internet for free. I will be the first to admit that I over analyzed the free preview. I looked at it and thought that they were being clever by not showing the teaching portion of the book in hopes that you would buy it. Nope. The preview shows everything that is in the book. There are many workbooks out there just like this for a lot less money. I asked for a refund. If you do not own a computer or a printer this book might be perfect for you. If you do own or have access to those two things, type free cursive handwriting sheets into your search bar and save yourself the eight bucks..
Well thought out method for teaching cursive. Letters are introduced by order of complexity, and each lesson reviews previous letters by writing them together with the new letters. Highly recommend.
I bought this to give my 7 yr old some practice and we can see improvement in her writing.
he;s not in 3rd grade yet but going thru this book gives me a head start
This was a great practice book for my grandaughter to write cursive!
