• Introduction
• The Alphastrokes ABC learning preschool font,
  flashcards, worksheets, and videos (as well as
  the Alphastrokes free ABC learning resources)
  provide teachers and parents with the tools to
  properly introduce the alphabet to young
  learners.
• Each of the Alphastrokes products uses the
  Alphastrokes font, a kindergarten font
  specifically designed for teaching children
  correct stroke sequences and strong penmanship
  habits.
• The suite of Alphastrokes products helps children
  develop letter recognition, penmanship, phonemic
  awareness, and vocabulary and these resources
  are equally well suited for individuals at home
  or groups of students in the classroom.

• What is the Alphastrokes tracing font?
• The Alphastrokes tracing font is a TrueType font
  that assists kindergarten students in printing
  the letters of the English alphabet correctly and
  efficiently. 
• It provides lines containing dotted letters for
  students to trace with the starting position and
  stroke directions illustrated for each letter,
  number, and punctuation mark.  
• The Alphastrokes tracing font has been carefully
  developed to provide an intuitive, practical
  introduction to writing the English alphabet.

• Why Alphastrokes is the best tracing font on the
  web
• The only tracing font of its kind
• As a kindergarten teacher, I am constantly making
  worksheets for my students who are just beginning
  to learn to write the letters of the alphabet. 
  At first I scoured the web for a good font that I
  could use to teach correct penmanship and stroke
  order, but I could find nothing!  So I ended up
  making my own font.  And now it is available for
  others who are in need of such a font.
• Simple, fluid, logical, practical, standard
  printing technique
• After researching and comparing various English
  alphabet penmanship techniques, I put together a
  font with the most logical and efficient stroke
  orders.  Alphastrokes is designed to minimize
  pencil lifting between strokes and encourage
  continuous stroke sequences.  It deters young
  learners from developing crude writing habits,
  such as forming ball-and-stick letters.  With
  this font, stroke sequences flow together
  smoothly to guide early writers to compose
  letters correctly and efficiently.

• How It Works
• Starting positions
• Starting positions are illustrated with a circle
  where the pencil should be placed when beginning
  each letter.  Starting positions are important
  for developing correct letter formation skills
  and efficiency in writing. 
• For example, the round letters a, c, d, g, o, and
  q all have the same starting position on the
  right, just below the midline.

• Alphastrokes uses logical stroke orders and
  continuous stroke sequences to
• Develop letter formation aptitude (encourages
  phonemic awareness)
• Enhance fine motor skills
• Avert letter reversal problems (confusing b and d,
   p and q)
• Foster early reading and writing skills
• Prepare students for cursive writing
