Setting Elements Handwriting Practice

Copy each passage carefully. Keep your letters an even size, use clear spacing between words, and follow the slope of the model. Then complete the setting activities.

Mild — steady letters

Copy the passage. Focus on letter size and shape.

1.At dawn, a small boat rested beside the quiet lake. Mist curled over the water, and birds called from the trees. The cool air made the shore feel peaceful.

Medium — even slope and spacing

Copy the passage. Watch the height of tall letters and leave clear spaces between words.

2.When Maia reached the old railway platform, evening was settling over the hills. Rain tapped on the tin roof while a yellow lamp glowed near the empty tracks. The place seemed lonely, but the smell of warm bread from a nearby shop made her feel welcome.

Spicy — careful copying

Copy the passage. Keep your letter size, slope and word spacing consistent throughout.

3.Beyond the pōhutukawa trees, the coastal path wound towards a lighthouse. It was late summer, and the last orange light stretched across the sea. Wind pushed salt spray against the rocks, while gulls wheeled above the cliffs. Although the lighthouse stood alone, its bright beam swept steadily across the darkening water, guiding boats towards the harbour.
