[quote=Anonymous]Tell me if you think I am old fashioned, but I am starting to think my child is not doing enough writing and doing too much on the 1-1 iPad. He seems to be hitting milestones (like being able to print his name in kindergarten, reading by 1st grade), but I seem to remember from my school days at a crappy elementary stilldoing writing by hand, copying sentences, working on spelling lists, and doing little written projects. Nothing complicated, but maybe working on copying a little book of verse and then making matching art. Or filling out little questionnaires about family. What are you seeing at your K-2? Are these little meaningless busy projects or are they important for learning? DS’ handwriting is horrible. [/quote]
