Handwriting Analysis

We had to write the fake ransom note and then in a group of three...

each of us tried to copy the person to the right of ours handwriting...

then the other person in the group had to trace the writer's handwriting.

By having us to try to forge someone else's handwriting it showed how different handwriting is for each one of us, Even though we learned the same cursive and regular handwriting we each have our own different style of handwritng. Some of us write just plain print, others write plain cursive, and others write a combination of print and cursive. Even then, some write long y's short y's wide cursive l's and the dot on i's is sometimes to the right.

After the handwriting was copied and traced to the best of the copier and tracer's ability we had to identify certian things or characteristics would be a better word for it. These characteristics are on the next post.
