School Handwriting Font Styles

Do you know the visual differences in D'Nealian, Getty-Dubay Italic, Zaner-Bloser, and other styles of handwriting taught in our schools? Do you cross your J, use a rounded W, or write your cursive Q so that it looks like a number 2? It probably stems from the style of writing you learned as a child.
