R is for RECord

R_is_for_record
Today I taught 3rd graders how to write "R" in cursive. The word example on my instructional sheet, ironically, was "RECord."

I made up an excuse to do the "Rec" in red by saying I wanted to emphasize how the "r" goes smoothly into the letters "e" and "c."

They bought it.

Then I scored this snapshot.
