Step One: To begin the cursive capital A, you'll start at the top of the line and begin a curved stroke downward. About halfway down the line, move the stroke inward, similar to drawing a zero or cursive O with a slight slant.
Step Two: When you reach the bottom of the line, keep the same curved stroke going back up to where you began the letter. Once you're at the middle of the line (on the way back up), straighten your stroke to meet the top.
Step Three: Finally, stop abruptly at the top, where the line meets, then draw the stroke immediately back down, following the same straight path halfway down the line. At the end of the straight section let your stroke trail off to the right, drawing the tail of your uppercase A in cursive, until the tail reaches the bottom of the line. Then, move the same stroke upward and to the right until you're about a quarter of the way up the line.
Congratulations, you've written an uppercase cursive A!
Step One: To begin the lowercase capital A, you'll start at the middle of the line and begin a curved stroke downward, just like the big A version. About halfway down, again, move the stroke inward, similar to drawing lowercase o.
Step Two: When you reach the bottom of the line, keep the same curved stroke going back up to where you began the letter, in the middle of the line. Once you're about halfway up the letter (on the way back up), straighten your stroke to meet the top.
Step Three: Finally, stop abruptly at the top of the a, where the line meets, then draw the stroke immediately back down, following the same straight path halfway down the line. At the end of the straight section let your stroke trail off to the right, drawing the tail of your lowercase A in cursive, until the tail reaches the bottom of the line.
Congratulations, you've written an lowercase cursive A!
