How to write the letter G
Capital G: Make a big curve like C, then a little line coming in across the middle from the right — the shelf.
Lowercase g: Small circle, then a line that drops below the baseline and hooks left — a monkey tail.
Watch for: The lowercase tail must drop below the line — g is a basement letter.
Tips for teaching the letter G
Say the letter name and its sound before tracing ("G says g as in goat"). Have your child trace the gray letters with a finger first, then a crayon or thick pencil — fine-motor control comes before pencil grip. One page a day beats five pages once a week, and always end on a success.
