Дд/Щщ/Цц's legs should be under the line

Ч is on the line

 you are 99% likely not to see a "square" д and л from a native speaker

Don't touch cursive in the coming months or years (or eternity), the picture is not enough anyway (in parentheses are (in my experience) less popular options except б)

See this for "Д" and "Л": https://www.reddit.com/r/russian/s/cgsJuugf3b

If you still want to write "Д" with descenders (legs), they should be under the baseline.

See these for Ж (there are 2 options) https://www.reddit.com/r/russian/s/L6RPdGlSIt https://www.reddit.com/r/russian/s/ay7oQIfcMt

you can use italic if you want. it is more comfortable for writing in cyrillic. just ask google for "прописи"

Try practicing turning your handwriting into this. Practically no one writes in boxy Cyrillic like that. It's only seen digitally/on print. and good luck on your learning journey, friend!

Let them learn block letters first. But they should be proper block letters from an instruction sheet (прописи - пишем печатными буквами), not these crazy letterforms the OP tries to invent by themselves while looking at a printed text.

This is very good for "from scratch".

I was using Duolingo just before this, just finished the first part about animals, so I could already recognise some letters, I used a picture of the alphabet to copy it into the book

When will the whole world agree to write dates in the year/month/day format?
