How To Make A Cursive F

There are two letters to learn when learning to write a cursive F. A student must learn both the uppercase and lowercase letters. Make a cursive F as part of a handwriting lesson plan and then practice to perfect the technique.

Step 1

Begin with the pencil at the upper line of the handwriting paper. Make a wavy line with the pencil.

Step 2

Place the pencil at the center point of the wavy line made in Step 1. Draw a line down to the base line with the pencil and swoop the line up to the left. End the swooped line at the dashed mid-line.

Step 3

Make a right angle at the dashed mid-line where you ended in Step 2. Draw a line to the right, crossing the vertical line and ending slightly on the other side of the vertical line. Turn the corner and continue the line down very slightly.

Step 4

Begin with the pencil at the base line. Make a curved line all the way from the base line to the top line with the pencil.

Step 5

Continue the line begun in Step 1 by drawing it straight down again to the baseline and continuing it below the baseline. Stop at the set of handwriting lines underneath.

Step 6

Swoop back up from the stopping point in Step 2 and continue the line back to the baseline to the starting point in Step 1.

Step 7

Make a tail extending out to the right and end it at the dashed mid line.
