Neat letters start with good habits
Handwriting starts long before kids pick up a pencil, with fine motor play like squeezing, cutting and tracing. In preschool and kindergarten, kids learn to hold a pencil, form uppercase and lowercase letters, and write their names. They learn where letters sit on the lines: tall letters like b, d, h touch the top line, and letters like g, p, y dip below. In 1st and 2nd grade, the focus moves to spacing, size and writing neatly enough that others can read it. Many classes introduce cursive in 2nd or 3rd grade.
Good handwriting comes from short, frequent practice and the right starting point for each letter. Here is what works.
Play a letter song, then have kids "sky write" the letter in the air with big arm movements before they write it on paper. Big movements first help the brain learn the letter shape, then pencils make it neat.
Why it works: words set to a repeating melody are easier to recall than the same words spoken (Wallace, 1994).

Why it works: handing over the work step by step, from teacher to student, is one of the most widely used teaching frameworks (Pearson and Gallagher, 1983).

Why it works: spreading practice out over days is one of the two most effective study methods in a major research review (Dunlosky and colleagues, 2013).

Most children start forming letters around age 4 or 5. Before that, drawing, coloring, cutting and playdough build the hand strength they need.
Many teachers start with uppercase because the lines are simpler, then move quickly to lowercase. Lowercase letters are used far more often in reading and writing.
Check their pencil grip, make sure they start letters at the top, and practice a few minutes every day. Lined paper with a dotted middle line helps with letter size.
It depends on the school. Many teach cursive in 2nd or 3rd grade, and some states require it.
