Cursive - A Foundational Learning Skill
Cursive is a foundation skill. Children need handwriting practice beyond second grade to build cognitive automaticity. Although it may seem like cursive is from a different era—a time when people communicated via letter and didn’t have technology at their fingertips—it’s still important for children to learn today. With benefits that span beyond the classroom, cursive instruction is critical for student success!
What Are 5 Reasons to Teach Cursive?
 | Elementary class time is still predominately pencil and paper. In fact as the grades progress, students spend more time writing on paper. |
 | Children need handwriting practice beyond second grade in order to build cognitive automaticity—the abidivty to free your mind from the mechanics of handwriting and focus on content. Through cursive instruction, children will eventually develop their personal style—most divkely a mix of print and cursive—and increase speed and fluency on their written assignments. |
 | Cursive handwriting increases retention and idea generation. |
 | Cursive is an easy school win and builds confidence in other schoolwork. |
 | Cursive provides a fresh start, even a second chance for students who may have struggled with printing. In the classroom, it is a fun, new skill to teach and learn. |
