And how old is this writing please?

[MrPickles73]

And what needs to be worked on? Thankyou.

Don't know, but it needs paragraphs.

The ink looks quite fresh, so 2-3 days I'd say?

Grobagsforever . Apologies I meant how old would you think the author is!

Are you going to tell us this is your 4yr olds writing?
It looks neat to me but I didn't realise you could gauge an age from handwriting.
It does need paragraphs as a pp has said but apart from that I have no idea how it could be improved.

8/9?

6

6

I'd say 6. No paragraphs, spelling mistakes, missing capital letters, a lot of 'and then'.

Why?

They need to work on a variety of ways to open sentences.

If you listen to some of the past 500 words short story writing competition entries for the relative age group in which you’re most interested that may be a good gauge of what the relevant ‘pinnacle standard’ is if that’s what you’re interested in?...

Would like to add that the handwriting is neater than my partners and he is 27. Probably better spelling too!

I can’t read it well enough to comment on spelling/grammar but I’d guess 8/9 as that’s when my DC started to write ‘joined up’ and got into it a bit enthusiastically! It’s got the look of my grandma’s handwriting but that’s probably from the excitement of joining up so every letter gets a tail or a kick!

10/11

Year 5/6. Spelling, paragraphs and sentence openers.

These threads are always the same.

OP boasting as this is their 4 yr old's writing. Then posters deliberately adding young guesses 🙄

For what it's worth - I'd say yr 4/5 based on writing. Didn't read as it wasn't particularly easy to read but I'm not a fan of this style of cursive

I would say nine years old.

Some little things e.g. in the word if the I and F are very far apart and look like two separate words but honestly looks fine for a child's writing.

People think a 6 year older child would write that?

This just goes to show questions like this are pointless. There's such a range of ages. There isn't a standard for each age.

It's very old-fashioned. Has the child travelled in time from an upper middle class family in the 1920s?

I couldn't believe this either!

Some of the sentence structure and punctuation needs work. My opinion is an 8 year old

I couldn't really follow the story... seems.quite detailed in places and naive in others. Seems to be neat writing, all.same size, sometimes not legible. I would say early senior school y8? with some possible pragmatic language difficulties.

Is this a Rees Moggs victorian child’s writing?
I doubt many kids write like this anymore either tails on so many letters, I’d say granny done the homework 🤣

My eldest is 7 and there isn't any children in her class that write like that.

It reminds me of the last year of primary/ first year of high school homework planner scribbles.
