Back in ... THE GOOD OLD DAYS
By Annette

Clip to ScrapBook   
Sharon,

I have 2 children; a 5 year old that will start Kindergarten this year, and a 3 year old.
We are going to be starting our first year of HomeSchooling. The curriculum that we have chosen teaches children to write using Cursive handwriting; manuscript writing is not taught, at least not at the early levels. I am a little nervous about this, since my daughter already knows how to write her alphabet using manuscript. I guess we will be starting over! A Challenge that I am sure we will tackle and eventually accomplish.

Back in "The Good Old Days", when students were learning to write, they were taught in cursive.
Maybe the school systems should revert back to these "OLD TIMES".
