[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]3rd grade is a typical learning cursive age. What style of cursive are you looking for? For example FCPS uses Zaner Bloser (yes, FCPS still officially teaches cursive) as does my kids' private, so to supplement we just get official Zaner Bloser books.[/quote]Our kids never learned cursive at FCPS.  They are MS age now. [/quote]

I thought they recently brought it back as a part of the curriculum within the past few years (so your kids probably missed it).[/quote]

First PP who mentioned cursive in FCPS. It was part of the standards when my 8th grader was in 3rd. Now - that was the height of online school, but she still had to do the same Zaner Bloser workbook as her siblings. [/quote]

My current 4th grader had cursive last year and this year in FCPS. My current 7th grader never learned it in school.[/quote]

My child was in 2nd and 3rd grade during Covid. Probably the same as your son.  That’s the time they introduce cursive so they missed it.   They sent some program or papers for them with cursive practice but I didn’t bother giving them to her.  There were too many important things at that age like multiplication and reading and writing in print.

Cursive is like Latin, it’s from a time long ago.    [/quote]
