It is something that teachers look for in the beginning of the school year and tests that are given, a student is asked for example one of the test questions is usually to write your name. And the teacher will be watching to see if you are doing proper letter formation from top to bottom, staying within the line, being careful with the dotted line in the middle. So here is something you could easily obtain at any store or the library or again you probably could access this on the Internet is letter formation manuscript handwriting. The proper way to write the letters of the alphabet, your capital and your lower case letters. And for example like the letter A you always start from the top to the bottom. You go from the top to the bottom and you cross from left to right and you stay and respect the integrity of the lines.
