Ribbon Hand Lettering


This was the first 'intro' project I did with my junior high kids this past week. 
I taught them how to make a cursive word look like it was done in ribbon style.
I watched a tutorial HERE and then taught it to my students. Certain letters are super challenging so it just takes time and practice. Kids need to know how to draw in cursive for this lesson- some didn't know how!!  Why isn't this still being taught in elementary school?!
