Hi i now have a year 2 class this year and need to do entry and exits could be get a version with this please!!
Hi Bianca, great suggestion! I'll let the team know, in the meantime we do have these handwriting worksheets where you can select pre-cursive in your States font. https://www.teachstarter.com/au/teaching-resource/alphabet-handwriting-sheets-individual/
i love this resource i have printed a class set and laminated them ! we love it and it has helped my students so much!
Hi, Bianca! Thanks so much for your positive feedback, this is lovely! Glad you're enjoying them!
I downloaded the 'SA' version, but the k is incorrect.
Hi Ella! This worksheet is for teaching print, rather than pre-cursive, which is why the k doesn't have its little exit. If we can help further, please let me know!
Hi Ella, I have passed this on to the team to take a look. Thanks for letting us know!

Is it possible to get resources for introducing exits and entries for NSW font. I teach Year 3 and it would be great to have posters and tracing pages showing this transition phase from no joins to joins.

We create the top request each week. Please let me know if you have any further questions, I'm more than happy to help. Kind regards, Kristian
I love this motor plan of the QLD Beginners Alphabet and would love to use it. The letters d, v and w is however missing the exit line. Is there a possibility to fix it?
Hi Lynette, If you select the QBeginners font from the School Font drop-down list at the top of the page, you will get the correct letters in your resource. If there is anything else I can assist you with, please don't hesitate to contact me.
