I use an illustration consisting sun/clouds at the top of the paper and grass or underground soil at the bottom of the paper. For letters like 'q','g','y'; I'd say the stroke goes underground, while other letters end on the grass or the stroke must touch the grass.

Encourage children to write even if they do not know how to spell. I always encourage them to try, and if they require help, I sound out the word slowly and get them to do the rest without me spelling it out for them. I reward them with a cute little chop after they've tried and share with me what they have written!

Teaching children how to write is like learning the alphabet in a whole new language. With that thought in mind, allowing children the time to observe teachers write would also be good practice for them to familiarize themselves with the rules of writing. Of course, providing children with various writing activities would definitely help them exercise their writing skills.

Having pre-writing tasks such as writing on salt trays, using dough to form letters and using legos to form letters are some the concrete methods.
Following which, tracing their names, drawing straight, curvy and zigzag lines can be the next step.
Once the basics are done, children can be asked to write with various tools such as paintbrushes, cotton tips, markers and other writing tools.

During class writing, enlist the children's help in spelling the words so that they may practice their sentence formation and letter sound knowledge while attempting invented spelling. Recognizing their efforts is also important to encourage a positive towards writing. For instance, we can recognize difficult words that are spelled or parts of words that are misspelled. Thus, letting children know that it is ok to make mistakes.
