Why do we even bother to learn cursive? Now that's a question many people have been arguing about for the past few years. Cursive is an important part of learning. Both students and teachers alike should learn and use cursive.
Cursive has been used for centries in the United States, and parts of Britain. Our Declaration of Independants is written in cursive, as well as our Constitusion. If the younger generations don't get a chance to learn to write or read cursive, how will they understand our Constitusion or the Declaration of Independants?
As stated in "Cursive Is a Powerful Brain Tool" "Medical brain scans show cursive helps with motor-skill devepolment of both left and brain sides of the brain."
