Choose a letter, watch Pencil Pete form it, and replay the strokes while your students practice on paper. The Windows programs bring the printing and cursive demonstrations to your computer for offline use.
Sketch Edition worksheets included. Every paid Windows software license comes with the matching PDF worksheet pack: printing, cursive, or both. The Windows program uses the original Classic animations; the included worksheets have Pete’s refreshed Sketch drawings.

Teaching with Pencil Pete
Use a classroom display for a shared demonstration, replay a letter with a small group, or set up an approved computer for independent practice. Keep paper and pencils ready so students can try the strokes themselves.
