What I Learned in 3rd Grade

Cursive

An article in the New York Times recently noted the decline in the use of cursive handwriting. In the third grade I argued with my teacher while learning it that I would never use it. Ms. Nichols - I was wrong.

And such beautiful handwriting you have too.

oh my gosh, I NEVER write in cursive! Except for my name. And if I tried, it would be next to impossible to read and so slow. p.s. I love that you argued w/ a teacher in 3rd grade. I never would have done that...too shy.

I LOVE cursive, I'm so happy I was forced to do all those lines! I hope it doesn't disappear.

Very nice post. I'm sure Ms. Nichols would love to know that.

So cute...I have to say I have to work really hard when teaching handwriting...as my rushed scribble is like that of a doctors! (I found you through Laura's blog...I'll be back :))
