[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC is not in school yet, but I am a little shocked to hear that it is taught so late overall, rather than the first and only way to write, since you don't need to learn to write print, if you learn cursive. You can switch to print automatically later, it appears like a double effort for the child the way they are doing it now. [/quote] Learning to print is already a challenge for many kindergarteners, and it's easier than cursive.[/quote] It's actually not easier for many children. My DD's OT says many kids who have problems printing turn out to do well with cursive. This has been true for both of my children.[/quote]
