What Quill says (transcript)
  1. Welcome to The Cursive Club! Today's letter is d.
  2. Cursive is movement on paper. Body, arm, wrist, hand, pencil.
  3. Stand up, and spin a hula hoop with me!
  4. Swing it up, go back and around, then reach way up tall, and slide down and out!
  5. A Magic C with a tall back, up to the topline. That's the letter d.
  6. Now watch the letter d.
  7. Start on the baseline. Swing up and over the top, like a Magic C.
  8. Go back over the top, around, and up tall to the topline.
  9. Slide back down to the baseline, and curve out.
  10. Again, a little faster. Up, back, tall, down, out.
  11. Now, nice and quick.
  12. Your turn! Trace the gray letters in your book.
  13. Go slow, and start at the dot.
  14. Keep your pencil on the paper. It's all one stroke.
  15. Reach up tall. The d touches the topline.
  16. Great job, cursive star! Pause and practice on your page!
