[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok I'm a teacher and basically handwriting is not a specific skill they work on in 2nd grade so when she says she has no resources, it means since it's not something she teaches, she doesn't have any workbooks or worksheets to send home to you. In order for her to do so she would have to purchase a workbook or scour the Internet for worksheets exactly like you would have to. [/quote] It seems to me that with 20 kids in your class, you'd notice if one had chicken scratch illegible handwriting and think that merited some concern, right? Even if it wasn't a specific skill you work on in 2nd? If a child has missed picking up a skill along the way, it concerns me that teachers shrug it off if it's not "their skill" to teach. But I guess maybe this is specific to handwriting, which isn't considered as important? Or perhaps it's not unusual these days for children to have terrible handwriting?[/quote]
