This version focuses on practicing individual letter formations before moving onto use of words containing those letters. We cover lowercase a, then uppercase A, then the words ant and Axe.

This version simply provides repetition of the lowercase a, encouraging students to develop muscle memory of the flick at the end of the letter.

This is our uppercase version – note that it’s the same as the non-cursive version of uppercase A.

Here, students pair lowercase and uppercase A’s, helping to develop muscle memory of the two forms of the same letter.

In this version, students practice the word ant/Ant, focussing on connecting that lowercase a to the top of the n. In the uppercase version, students still need to connect the n to the t.

This version practices a more difficult word – apple. students need to connect the a to the p at the start, then continue their cursive linking through p, p, l, and e.
Designed by Chris
This version practices the word axe, focusing on connecting the lowercase a to the x, then the x to the e. Students also reinforce the understanding that the capital A does not connect to the next letter.

On this sheet, we reinforce all three of our focus words for linking lowercase a’s to their follow-up letters. Students practice: ant, apple, axe, repeatedly.

Stepping up the difficulty level, this version involves writing a full sentence with lots of a’s, with the idea that students will practice fluency in connecting letters.

Another sentence practice version, I made sure in this one that there is a in the middle of words (such as stack and warm), so students also practice linking into a, not just out of it.
