Asleep. Ask. Astounded. Last. All of these words require you to write as in cursive.
There are so many words that both begin with and/or contain the letters “a” and “s” together. One of which is the word “as”! If you’re learning to write in cursive, you’ll have to work on this (amongst other) common pairs of letters.
These pairings, or connecting letters in cursive, are called “letter joins.”
Obviously, you’ll have to write both letters in the pair, connecting them together. We have tutorials for both the letter a and the letter s. If you haven’t yet, practice each individually before trying to connect them.
Then, try connecting both letters to one another. Below you’ll find a short video showing how to write an uppercase, or big A with a lowercase s, as well as both a and s in lowercase form.
To help, we’ve also created this worksheet (you’ll find that below). Give it a print and practice writing this letter join until you’re satisfied with the result.
Oh, if you’re interested in all of our worksheets in a single downloadable file, you can find that in our shop, right here.
