Modern Handwriting Book 2 is designed to facilitate the following aspects of the teaching of handwriting:
• final formal revision of unjoined small and CAPITAL letters
• tracing and copying of sentences
(1) with / without starting points for words
(2) one line / two line sentences
• introduction of exit strokes, leading to joining of letters and to systematic introduction of almost all joins and exit strokes
• converting printed words into handwritten formats, using regular and irregular joins
• introduction of new letter forms required for difficult joins e.g. v, w, o to e and practice of these new joins and of new forms for t, d, p and q
• tracing / copying of sentences with decreasing guide from starting points, using all joins already practised.
