If a child skips a letter in writing the alphabet, do the subsequent letters still receive credit?

Frequently Asked Question:

If a child skips a letter in writing the alphabet, do the subsequent letters still receive credit?

Answer:

Those letters should receive 1 point as long as the subsequent letters are correctly formed and are in correct sequence.. For example, "b, c, e, g, h" receives 5 points, because all letters are in the correct sequence of the alphabet. If the child wrote, "b, e, i, g, h," the child would get 4 points for b, e, and g, and h, provided the letters were written correctly.
