Cursive: A Lost Art

Help me give my students the tools they need to practice their cursive handwriting skills.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Casanova's classroom raised $183

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Cursive was taken out of the curriculum in schools for a number of years but it's back now! Unfortunately with so many expectations required of students the time to teach cursive is minimal and the resources are nonexistent.

These practice books and sheet protectors will help me give my students the chance to learn the lost art form of cursive handwriting and grow their love for expressing themselves!

Introducing cursive to my writing center has been a game changer for my students and so many enjoy learning to sign their names and practice writing letters to each other.
