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