[quote=Anonymous]I’ll just add also that handwriting- and in particular script- is an actual proven tool to assist dyslexic kids. There is a connection bw the brain and the muscle memory in writing that improves their skills. I mention it bc it is one of many unspoken benefits of doing school the old fashioned way. I implore parents to all types of kids to not waste away these grammar school years. Hand writing, reading books and using pens and paper develop mental and physical skills that our kids need. The edtech shortcuts don’t cut the mustard. There will be ample time in high school and beyond to use technology and tools but mastering basics while they are young creates pathways in the brain that kids need.[/quote]
