About Playwrite MX Guides Font

Playwrite México Guides is a single-weight font companion that harmonizes seamlessly with the main family, Playwrite México . It includes guidelines on the baseline, x-height, ascenders, and descenders. These guides provide a visual aid for primary school children that helps young learners grasp the proportions of letterforms and assists them in drawing letters with confidence and accuracy. Since the 1992 educational reform, the curricula for primary education no longer provide details about handwriting instruction or specific writing models. Moreover, it grants teachers the freedom to choose teaching methods for reading and writing instruction during the earliest stages. However, nearly all private schools and most public ones teach cursive writing — either alongside or sequentially — with print letters. But the resources they use for teaching cursive writing are privately acquired from publishing houses or created by teachers themselves. In this context, local type designers have been commissioned to create typefaces that match the styles familiar to teachers. These typefaces are usually similar to North American penmanship models, more likely, a derivative from the National Commission of Free Textbooks workbooks dating back to the 1960s.
