Well I just decided why we were learning all that cursive.


It is much easier to wright your name in the snow with cursive. ;)

One of my younger cousins has made it all the way to 9th grade, has never come across cursive in school... I'm not sure they do teach it anymore lol
Yes they do still teach it, and some require it as part of the ELA grade. It's usually a part of morning bell work. I'm a special education teacher in Moore, and I for one despise it simply for the fact that the teachers don't understand that it's fine for normal students, but many of the students in special education have fine motor dexterity problems and they simply can't do it, and if they do it actually causes them physical pain and discomfort.
