[quote=Anonymous]I've heard that the powers in charge have decided FCPS teachers don't need to teach cursive and they just give the students a workbook at the end of third grade to work on independently. Is this your experience? Did you child learn cursive? Do they use it in upper grades or do the teachers tell them to print everything? I haven't researched it, but I just feel that cursive is important to learn for several reasons (slows the child down so they are thinking more about what they write, forces them to notice details while learning it, of course they need it to sign their name and to read the writing of other people). Are parents completely responsible for teaching their kids cursive in FCPS?[/quote]
