About this worksheet
Lowercase w begins with an undercurve to the midline and a slant line down. Make a second undercurve and slant line, then a third undercurve up to the midline, and end with a small checkstroke. Uppercase W starts with a curve forward at the top line, slants down, undercurves up, slants down again, and finishes with an undercurve that reaches the top line.
Lowercase w ends at the midline with a checkstroke, so the next letter connects with a bridge; wh and wo are common and need care. Uppercase W ends high and usually does not join.

Undercurve letters (i, t, u, w, r, s, p, j)
Cursive w is usually taught alongside the other letters in its stroke family, so practicing them together reinforces the shared starting stroke.
