1. Your お、ふ、ほ、み all are wrong. Your お shouldn't have a loop at the end of stroke #2. It's hard to say in words how your ふ is wrong. For your ほ, the right hand side, the top horizontal line should be flush with the vertical part—the vertical part should not extend any higher. Your み's horizontal stroke makes an s-curve type thing and it shouldn't. Oh, also your つ shouldn't be so high up. It should be lower down and look like a つ rather than a ー (which is what it looks like to me). Without context I'd never guess it's a つ.

It's readable, though. Your penmanship will get better if you pay attention to the details. Also, if you are sloppy now, your kanji (which require greater attention to detail) will be terrible.

2. Learning words while only knowing hiragana? Buy Kanji in Context. You can learn the words and the kanji at the same time. It's hands-down the best kanji book ever devised.
