Exit Hooks Practice

Practise a neat, small exit hook: the finishing stroke that curves out to the right from a letter. In some handwriting styles, it helps the next letter join smoothly. Keep your letters sitting on the line and leave clear spaces between words.

Spot the exit hook

Use the guide above. Choose the best description of an exit hook on a lowercase letter.

1.Which description best explains an exit hook?
  • A small finishing stroke that curves out to the right
  • A large loop added above every letter
  • A mark placed underneath a word
2.True or false: An exit hook can help a writer move smoothly towards the next letter.

4.Practise lowercase d five times, finishing each one with a neat exit hook.
5.Copy these words neatly, paying attention to the a and d: dad add day

Now use your careful letter formation in a sentence.

6.Copy this sentence neatly: Dad and I made a sandcastle.
