A recent incident involving seven-year-old Alyssa and her teacher has sparked a debate. When Alyssa received a red note from her teacher, stating, “Stop writing your name in cursive.
You have been warned several times,” people began questioning whether it was fair to discourage her cursive writing practice.
As teachers, we should always be respected, but perhaps stopping Alyssa from practicing cursive was not the best approach.
Cursive writing is not a top priority in all schools, but it is still a valuable skill that requires focus and practice. In fact, cursive writing can help children develop essential qualities such as concentration and dedication.
