A quick printing tip
Use portrait orientation and the same paper size in your printer settings. The PDF includes a white margin so the drawing stays inside the sheet.
With an adult
Open your mouth and let a short breath out for h, as at the start of helicopter.
Draw the tall stroke down, travel back up and curve over the helicopter's rounded shape before coming down again.
Whole-word copying is optional. Model one movement and stop whenever a break would help.
