Letterform structure
of Grade Teacher.
The G closes with a straight bar, the R keeps a rounded bowl and a straight leg, the D holds a full bowl and the E carries three even arms, all at a heavy even weight with fully rounded corners and modest contrast. The counters are simple and open, which is what keeps the face legible at 20 pt on a worksheet and readable from the back of a room at 60 mm. Because the letters are separate and equally weighted, the sample gives each one a different colour without any loss of rhythm — the same trick as a set of cut card letters. The fit is even, so a short heading fills a wall panel. The cream ground, the coloured fills, the small decorations and the banded caption are presentation; the typeface is the two words.

Wall heading for a classroom display
The tall rounded letters read at 60 mm from the back of a room, and the simple counters keep a long subject name legible when cut from card.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Cut a 900 by 400 mm panel: set the heading at 60 mm, keep 8 mm of material between letters so each reads as a separate shape, and leave 20 mm of panel edge so the letters are not clipped by the frame.
Pre-production check
Card letters curl when laminated on one side; laminate both faces and check two letters before running the rest of the set.
Cover for a pupil's exercise book
The rounded heading prints on a small label at 13 pt and gives a plain exercise book a friendly cover without an illustration.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 70 by 40 mm cover label: set the subject at 13 pt, set the pupil's name in a 7 pt rounded sans beneath, and keep 5 mm of margin so the rounded corners survive the die and the book's handling.
Pre-production check
A label on a book spine gets rubbed first; check a cover after a week of use and keep the type block away from the spine fold.
Poster for a school open day
The bright rounded weight carries an open-day poster at 90 pt, and the simple shapes stay legible on a photocopied notice from across a corridor.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A3 poster: set the event name at 90 pt across the upper half, set the date and time in an 18 pt rounded sans below, and keep 20 mm of margin so the letters read cleanly after a black-and-white copy.
Pre-production check
Colour-coded letters lose their distinction in greyscale; check a mono copy and add a bold outline if two letters begin to read alike.

Very heavy rounded mixed-case lettering with a soft sticker outline
Cute Simple
Cute Simple is very heavy rounded mixed-case lettering in which the bowls press against the stems and a thick soft outline wraps the whole lockup, so a word reads as one cut sticker rather than as separate letters.
Super chunky playful caps
Super Creative
