Together in Cursive

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

There are 8 letters in together, but only 3 strokes: t-o-g-e-t-h-e-r in one continuous stroke; then go back to cross the t (×2). Play the animation to see how the letters flow together, then trace the whole word and download the printable practice sheet.

How to write together in cursive

  1. 1Write t, o, g, e, t, h, e, r as one continuous stroke, joining each letter to the next without lifting the pencil.
  2. 2Go back and cross the t (×2).
Strokes: 3Pencil lifts: 2Letters: 8

Size is what makes together readable: tall t and h, midline-height o, e, and r, and below-the-line g. Uneven heights are the most common mistake, so check each letter against its lines.

How the letters in together connect

Follow the joins as you write together: t ends on an undercurve that carries into the downcurve opening of o; o ends on a checkstroke that carries into the downcurve opening of g; g ends on an overcurve that carries into the undercurve opening of e; e ends on an undercurve that carries into the undercurve opening of t; t ends on an undercurve that carries into the undercurve opening of h; the remaining 2 joins follow the same rhythm to the end of the word.

together is only as good as its letters. Each card links to the full guide — animation, joins, quiz, and worksheet — for that letter.

Trace together in cursive

Now write it yourself. Put your finger or mouse on the green circle and follow every stroke of together — the check only advances while you stay on the line.

Put your finger or mouse on the circle and pull it through the first stroke.
