[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. The private schools require cursive, but only up to a certain grade then it’s optional. The rationale is it helps spelling and prevents letter reversal. Teaching manuscript was such a chore and he’s nearly got it and I can’t imagine starting over again with another script that will be abandoned soon enough. I’m relieved to hear it wasn’t too bad for your ND learners to pick up. [/quote]

What grade is he, and what grade do they start cursive and what grade do they stop requiring it?

That would guide my advice to you.[/quote]Entering 1st grade. Required to write cursive until 3rd grade and then can drop it. It’s a short period of time but frustrating because it’s a critical time for reading, spelling, and social skills development. It’s not like I need anything else on my plate to supplement at home. None of the private or publics in our area give hw so it’s up to me to find my own resources.[/quote]

When do they start cursive?
