How K and k are drawn on this sheet
The numbered arrows on capital K show 3 strokes. Stroke 1 starts on the top line at the left and pulls down; stroke 2 starts on the top line at the right and slants down to the left; stroke 3 starts above the dashed midline left of center and slants down to the right. In this font the leg of K leaves the arm, not the stem, so stroke 3 starts on the arm. For lowercase k the arrows show 3 strokes. Stroke 1 starts on the top line at the left and pulls down; stroke 2 starts on the dashed midline at the right and slants down to the left; stroke 3 starts below the midline left of center and slants down to the right. Lowercase k is a tall letter that reaches the top line. Rows of dotted copies follow, each a shade lighter, and the last row has only guide lines.

Questions and answers
How many strokes are in K and k?
On this sheet capital K has 3 numbered and lowercase k has 3. Each number sits where its stroke starts, and the arrow shows which way it goes, in the order taught in US school print.
Can I print only capital K or only lowercase k?
Yes. Under Letters, choose Capitals or Lowercase. Every row of the sheet then uses that form.
Will the letter K sheet print on A4 paper?
Yes. Under Options, choose US Letter or A4 before you download, and the rows are laid out for that paper.
Is there a cursive K?
Yes. Choose Cursive under Letter style and the sheet draws K and k in cursive, with numbered stroke arrows on the solid model letters. The cursive alphabet page has every cursive letter on one set of pages.
What are the lines on each row of the K sheet?
A solid top line, a dashed midline, a solid baseline and a dotted line below it for the letters that drop down, such as g, j, p, q and y.
