My Project

This year, I plan to emphasize teaching cursive writing to my third graders. This is a skill that many students, and even adults, have missed out on through the past few years.

With your help, I can establish the foundation for this critical skill.

I want students to not just be able to read and write their name in cursive, but to also be able to read and write common literature and notes in cursive.

Some of my students have never seen cursive writing used, let alone learned to use it. With your help, I hope to remedy this.
