About this worksheet

Lowercase v starts with an overcurve to the midline and a slant line down to the baseline. Undercurve back up to the midline and finish with a small checkstroke to the right. Uppercase V starts with a curve forward at the top line, slants down to the baseline, and undercurves back up to the top line.

Lowercase v ends with a checkstroke at the midline, so it joins the next letter with a bridge; ve is a common pair and needs a dip before the loop. Uppercase V finishes high at the top line and usually does not join the letter after it.

  1. 01

    Overcurve letters (n, m, x, y, z, v)

    Cursive v is usually taught alongside the other letters in its stroke family, so practicing them together reinforces the shared starting stroke.

  2. 02

    Join v in real words

    Words like van, vase, vest practice the joins into and out of v, which is what cursive is for.

  3. 03

    Traditional US cursive

    Set in a traditional cursive style on three-line guides, on Letter or A4 paper. Switch fonts or guides in the editor.

Questions

How is cursive v different from u?
Lowercase v starts with an overcurve and ends with a checkstroke at the midline. Lowercase u starts with an undercurve and ends at the baseline.
Why does the join after v look messy?
Usually the checkstroke is skipped and the next letter is started from the baseline. Practice v pairs with a clear bridge at the midline.
Are the cursive letter V worksheets free?
Yes. The sample sheet on this page is a free PDF in US Letter or A4, no account needed. Creating and previewing your own version is free too; printing and downloading custom sheets come with Pro, which also removes the preview watermark.
