Cursive K k
Capital K: Start just below the top line on the left, make a small hook, and pull down to the baseline. Lift your pencil. Start at the top line on the right and slant in to the first line at the midline. Curve out and down to the baseline and swing up to join. Lowercase k: Start at the baseline and swing up to the top line. Loop to the left and pull straight down to the baseline. Go back up, make a small loop at the midline and tuck it in, then kick out to the baseline and swing up.

Stroke order
Tip: Keep the small loop of lowercase k at the midline, well below the top of the tall loop. A tall second loop makes it look like an h.
Joining: Lowercase k ends at the baseline with a swing up. To join into k, swing all the way up to the top line for the loop.
