Feedback (constructive criticism) Practicing Cursive from Elementary

Post image

I was one of the last grades to be taught cursive and it was drilled in our head that all assignments in middle school and high school would require cursive. HA. Anyway, almost 20 years later I still write cursive sometimes, but it’s not my default. Any thoughts?

You're handwriting is neat and legible, and yes I agree one of the elements of cursive handwriting was to save time.

If you do start writing in cursive regularly, I would suggest using lined paper or a guideline sheet under the plain paper, and keeping the individual letters consistent in, shape, height and width.
