How to Write B in Cursive

Cursive B has two forms. The uppercase B looks tall and round. The lowercase b looks simple & elegant. Each form needs clear strokes and gentle curves. Let’s examine both steps in detail.

Lowercase Cursive b

Start at the baseline and move your pencil straight up to the top line. Make a small loop, then bring the stroke back down to the baseline. Curve it slightly to the right so it connects with the next letter.

Write the lowercase cursive b tall and neat. Give it a long stem and a soft loop on the right side. Keep your hand relaxed and use light pressure for smooth lines.

See the cursive b as a tall stick with one gentle loop. Trace it a few times to build confidence. Use the cursive handwriting worksheet to practice and shape the curve perfectly.

Uppercase Cursive B

Uppercase cursive B begins near the top line. Draw a small curve upward, then pull your pencil straight down to the baseline. Move back up halfway and create the top loop. Curve out again to form the lower loop. End the letter with a short curve to the right.
Keep both loops even and smooth. The top loop should stay slightly smaller than the bottom one. Hold your hand steady to keep the back line straight. Avoid sharp turns. Soft, rounded curves give your letter a graceful look. Practice slowly until each stroke feels natural and balanced.

How to Connect Cursive B to Other Letters

Once you know how to write B, the next step is joining it with other letters. A clean connection gives your words flow and rhythm.

How to Connect Lowercase Cursive b

The lowercase b ends with a small curve that moves to the right. That curve helps you slide into the next letter without lifting your pencil.

Here’s how it connects:

  • b + a / o / e: Let the final curve roll into the round part of the next letter.
  • b + l / r / u: Lift your hand slightly, then move into the tall line.
  • b + i / t / n: Keep the motion smooth as you move across the baseline.

Each word gives your hand a different angle to work with. Keep your strokes light and stay relaxed.

How to Connect Uppercase Cursive B

Uppercase B often stands alone in writing. You use it at the start of names, titles, or places. But you can connect it when needed.

Try these:

  • B + a / e / i: Start the next letter close to the lower curve.
  • B + l / r / y: Add a soft hook from the end of the letter.
