I don't know what the standard was in grade school, I just remember I didn't do writing well until much later, high school, perhaps. Ironically, I studied to be a teacher, and like you, realized I would need to have readable handwriting. Then I never finished to become a teacher, so my writing has mostly been for myself!<br /><br />CatCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16085463730809297977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30891954.post-34552149126677428022011-07-09T19:57:52.628-07:002011-07-09T19:57:52.628-07:00messymimi:

We, especially our younguns, spend far too much time typing. My handwriting is pretty bad. I used to get terrible marks in 'penmanship' when I was a kid. However, in college, while studying education, I knew that I needed to have impeccable handwriting as a teacher - so I would practice while taking notes. I can perform perfect Zaner-Bloser cursive... if I want to take the time to do so!Dreaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02113432418609414054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30891954.post-38835405698777820952011-07-06T12:33:51.998-07:002011-07-06T12:33:51.998-07:00Your anniversary idea is a winner for certain.

Wow.<br /><br />It's great that the bees seem happy.<br /><br />As for handwriting -- yes, it is a dying art. One teacher i know, who still used such things, talked about a 3rd grader she was tutoring who was quite impressed to see a real chalkboard, and begged to be able to use it. In her school, each child has a laptop on his/her desk, and the teacher writes on her computer and it appears on the laptop, no boards needed. None of them learn handwriting much, just typing and print.messymimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649529601786689712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30891954.post-87599781850787898432011-07-06T08:25:14.223-07:002011-07-06T08:25:14.223-07:00Your handwriting is lovely, and easy to read, on t...Your handwriting is lovely, and easy to read, on top of that.

You have to pick the pen or pencil up for each stroke, with cursive, well, it's a whole lot faster! It's easy, nothing like Japanese or something!<br /><br />What a wonderful idea, taking a vacation from the world! How very cool! A great anniversary gift to yourselves as well!<br /><br />Have a good night now!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02743921972328074980noreply@blogger.com
