Common Core is Killing Cursive - 18 views

#8 Mae P on 20 Mar 14The reason that cursive was common is because it is a faster way to write without being illegible - and for me, since I use it often, it is exactly that. I think we should stress typing more than cursive, but if we don't teach cursive, we should be teaching shorthand and other writing strategies for taking quick notes on paper, which is difficult to do even with cursive.
