Capital F in cursive
Capital F has a wavy top bar above a slanted stem. A short crossbar crosses the stem near the middle.
Lowercase f in cursive
Lowercase f has a tall loop above the midline and a long stem that continues below the baseline, finishing in a narrow lower loop. It is one of the tallest letters in the alphabet.
Joining f to other letters
Lowercase f reaches below the baseline, so the join to the next letter climbs back up from below the line. Trace leaf to see the connection, then try the word on the blank copy line.
Print f stays above the baseline, so the below-line part is the big change. Use the guidelines to check that the upper loop reaches the top line and the lower loop drops below the baseline.
