    where could i get a Cyrillic handwriting exercise book?

    i think it is called a пропись. we've never used one in my russian class, so i write the best way that i can from reference of my teacher's handwriting and a few books, but i would like to use a handwriting exercise book to improve, thanks!

    Isn't that the book that the schools in the USSR used to teach handwriting? Is it still used today?

    Wow. Thats amazing that a book would be used for so long, but I guess it follows Russias beleave that "If it is working don't fix it".
