As the ability to refine metals grew, square-ended pens were replaced with metal pointed nibs. These are still used for formal documents and invitations. Copperplate is the predecessor of the cursive handwriting most of us learned in grade school. We will work to become comfortable handling the pen, then take on the alphabet, small and large letters, numbers, and punctuation. We will also play with flourishing. Supply list online.
