Great job!

Tip: print the capital and lowercase together while a child is learning that they are the same letter. Switch to one at a time once that has landed.

Teaching the Letter G

The sound it makes

Hard "g" as in goat and green. Soft "g" as in giraffe sounds like "j" and comes much later.

How the letter is formed

Round anticlockwise like a "c", close it, straight down below the line, then hook to the left.

What it gets confused with

Printed "g" often has a closed loop below the line that nobody writes by hand. The School style uses the single-storey handwritten form.

Words that start with G

The tail of the lowercase g drops below the baseline. Point that out while colouring: descenders are a thing children need to notice before their handwriting sits on the line.

Colouring a letter is not handwriting practice, and it is not meant to be. What it does is buy time: a child spends ten quiet minutes with the shape of Gg in front of them and comes away recognising it, which is the step that has to happen before a pencil is any use. When they are ready to form the letter themselves, the handwriting worksheet generator builds a tracing sheet for G with the guide lines in the right places.
