[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My third grader learned at Catholic school last year. He is writing his name on his school work in cursive but seems to be using print for the actual work. [b]He’s not good enough at cursive to use it exclusively— it would take him longer because it’s not automatic yet[/b]. I am going to have him keep practicing it at home. He doesn’t push back and I think it’s good for his fine motor coordination. I don’t like how much is being done on the computer at school so some handwritten work at home should help balance it. I’m going to make it part of his chores for which he earns a small allowance. I don’t care if he doesn’t end up using it much in the future. [/quote] That is how it becomes automatic. He needs to use it for everything for a year - then it will be easy and quick and he'll develop his own style of cursive.[/quote]
