Typically taught during the elementary school years, cursive writing builds on the letter formation of block letters or printing. The pencil doesn’t leave the paper in cursive writing and letters flow together.

在小学我们就学习用草书写字了。草书体书写是在正楷体或印刷体字母的基础上形成的。写草书的时候，笔不离纸，每个字母要连在一起。

Step 1: Study the alphabet  研究字母表

Find and download practice sheets from the internet. Study the cursive alphabet and examine how each letter is formed.

Step 2: Practice the letters 练习字母书写

Practice writing each letter of the alphabet. Write the letters over and over until they look like the letters on your practice sheets

Step 3: Expand your repertoire 扩大书写范围

Write your name in cursive, which is your signature. Practice copying short sentences from a book, until you can form the letters without thinking.

Step 4: Write paragraphs 练习段落书写

Proceed to writing full paragraphs. Be sure to incorporate the more uncommon letters, such as the capital Q, X, Z, and F, in your writings in order to master them.

Step 5: Keep practicing 坚持练习

Keep practicing your cursive writing until it’s second nature.
