Stroke Order

1. Write from top to bottom, and left to right.

2. Horizontal before vertical

3. Character-spanning strokes last

4. Diagonals right-to-left before diagonals left-to-right

5. Center before outside in vertically symmetrical characters

6. Enclosures before contents

7. Left vertical before enclosing

8. Bottom enclosures last

9. Dots and minor strokes last

stroke order is something that confuses me in class. she makes us memorize it.
