[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I put my younger DD through private ES because MCPS didn’t teach her older sibling phonics or cursive. I’m a teacher myself, but secondary and honestly, have no idea how to teach either of those. Why would I expect the average parent to be able to?[/quote] You’re a secondary teacher but you think cursive actually matters? Weird [/quote] Cursive does matter. Typing will disappear before cursive. I went to school with Americans and it was painful to wait til they caught up taking notes. Every single one of them slowed us down. Skip the printing. Strangely, they also sucked at history, geography, Spanish and math. I have no idea what they did know. [/quote]
