Web of Language

When I visited the web of language site, I scrolled through several news topics before finding one to read through. I decided to read Sorry, Dr. House. Study correlates neat handwriting with academic success.

It was interesting and discussed that neat, large handwriting has shown higher grades and several elementary school teachers believe this new strategy. Then, it continued to talk about the history of perfecting cursive handwriting and then needing type writing skills to the present need for typing skills on computers. This is interesting because there is so much truth to it as there is little emphasis on handwriting anymore.
