I can correctly form letters with looped descenders and know which letters are break letters.

Show transcript
In cursive handwriting, letters with descenders use a lead out loop to join with the next letter in the letter string. The descenders for y, g, j and f have a loop to aid joining. The letter f has a lead in and a lead out loop to aid joining. Break letters are letters in the alphabet that do not join to the next letter in the letter string. The letters x and z are break letters.
