Should we let cursive die? Should it become a relic of the past. Should it be replaced just as a quill gave way to pens and how typewriters gave way to computers? In this day and age cursive is a useless skill but it is still something that is taught in schools. Cursive should no longer be taught in schools because it is unnecessary in a digital age, it takes time away from teachers to teach other topics, and it has no special values or benefits compared to other forms of writing This is…
don't require students to learn cursive writing. I only learned to write cursive in 3rd grade and we didn’t learn very much. In my opinion I strongly believe that cursive writing should still be in school. Cursive was a valuable skill that was taught in school. Kids like me try to practice to get our letters perfect. Most kids only learn to write their name and not much else. Cursive seems to be disappearing from schools and all of our lives. But giving up cursive is a mistake. With each new…
Subject that Should be Taught in School Cursive should be taught in school. In third grade my teacher taught us a little bit of cursive. Every day we had a different letter to learn. We went through the whole alphabet, one letter at a time. Unfortunately, we only practiced it for about a month then we never used it again. How were we suppose to remember it if we didn’t keep using it? Cursive letters came in the mail from time to time, especially around holidays. I could some what read them,…

Regulation of certain sites on the schools’ servers will need to be put into place to help keep the students from getting on websites that are not beneficial to their learning. Because it is so easy to share anything using technology cheating could be a huge problem when introducing technology into the school systems. The honor system is not very reliable but many schools use this system. According to Alice Armstrong in “Technology in the Classroom it’s not a matter of ‘If’, but a ‘When’ and…
project together, and she had the loveliest handwriting. She wrote in condensed, flowing cursive that could make words look like a painting. At first, I was envious. I had wished that I had her handwriting; however, I’ve never been the kind of person to waste time on envy, and comparing yourself to others is exactly the thing you want to do if you never want to move anywhere in life. I remember practicing my cursive in math class in the…
very well which often got me into quite a bit of trouble. When I was in the 6th grade, my English teacher was insistent that we turn in cursive handwriting sheets. I had two older siblings, one in middle school and the other in high school, who never wrote in cursive, so I told her, “Ma’am, my brother and sister our much older than me, and they don’t use cursive. Why do I have to do this?” She said to me, “I assigned it, so you have to do it.” At this time, I was fairly puzzled by the concept of…
