gr in cursive
Joining g to r is one of the pairs that comes up all the time in English, and it is worth practising as a unit. The g finishes at the baseline, and the r starts at the baseline, so the connecting stroke has to bridge that gap.
Run a flat connector along the baseline from one letter into the next. Keep the pen on the paper through the join, and finish any dots or crossbars after the whole word is written.
