Mom Angry After Finding Teacher’s ‘Warning’ Note on Her 7-Year-Old Daughter’s Homework
Seven-year-old Alyssa got a worksheet from her teacher with a note in red ink saying, “Stop writing your name in cursive. You have been warned several times.” This has caused a debate. Teachers should be respected, but stopping Alyssa from practicing cursive seems unfair. Learning cursive, even if not a priority in all schools, is a useful skill that takes focus and practice. Alyssa’s attempts should be praised, not criticized.
Cursive writing helps children develop focus and dedication, which should be encouraged. Instead of sending negative notes, teachers should give helpful feedback and praise to students who try to learn this skill.
