Capital G in cursive
Capital G in this model is close to a print G: a large open curve with a short inward stroke at the right. It does not use the looped capital G found in many school cursive alphabets.
Lowercase g in cursive
Lowercase g has an oval body like a, then a stem that drops below the baseline and turns back up in a loop before the exit stroke.
Joining g to other letters
Lowercase g reaches below the baseline, so the join to the next letter climbs back up from below the line. Trace egg to see the connection, then try the word on the blank copy line.
If the learner’s class uses a looped capital G, follow the class model for the capital. The lowercase g matches the common school shape: compare it with lowercase a, which has the same body without the lower loop.
