About this stage
Semi-joined writing joins most letters but leaves a small gap after b, f, g, j, p, q, s and y. It is a gentle step from print towards fully joined handwriting.
The word lists include the common exception words children learn to read and spell in Years 1 and 2, so handwriting practice supports spelling too.
