Cursive M m
Capital M: Start at the baseline and curve up to the top line, then pull down to the baseline. Go up and over a second hump, a little lower, and pull down. Go up and over a third hump, pull down, and swing up to join. Lowercase m: Start at the baseline and curve up and over at the midline, then pull down to the baseline. Go up and over two more humps, pulling down to the baseline after each one. Swing up at the end.

Stroke order
Tip: Cursive m has three humps, counting the first one. Keep them all the same height, touching the midline.
Joining: Lowercase m ends at the baseline with a swing up. To join into m, curve up and over the first hump; after b, o, v, or w, slide from the midline straight into that hump.
