Valeria in Cursive

The name Valeria in cursive: stroke-by-stroke animation, letter joins, a trace check, and a free printable worksheet.

Valeria takes 3 strokes to write in cursive — the capital V on its own, then a-l-e-r-i-a in one continuous stroke; then go back to dot the i. The animation below draws it on the writing lines exactly the way children practice it in Scribble; trace it after, then take the worksheet to paper.
