It's time for CURSIVE!

The children are SO EXCITED to finally begin to learn how to write in cursive! Their cursive handwriting is coming along beautifully! Before each of our writing lessons, the children make sure they: 1.Are sitting tall in their chairs with both feet on the floor, and their shoulders back. 2. Have their paper slightly slanted. 3. Have their guide hand down on the top corner of their paper. This encourages proper posture and reminds the children to do their very best. Please encourage these same steps at home. Also, just a small request.... please do not get ahead of us at school! It can become very confusing for the children if they have learned to make a letter one way at home, and then learn another way at school. Thank you so much for help!
