Description
Class Experience
Learners should practice the cursive for at least ten minutes a day on average for at least four or five days per week in order to excel at cursive. Since this is a new skill, it is easy to forget correct formation so they should watch the video each day as they make the letters and words.
Cursive writing paper is highly suggested. Here is an example of paper that will work well. https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51s6FgMoVEL._SX384_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg A lined white board is also a possibility, however the line should not be spaced too widely.
This class will provide an informal assessment based on teacher feedback but if a more formal assessment is needed for a homeschooling portfolio, or similar, I am happy to provide that.
No live meetings, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
Parents may want to be available to ensure their learner is forming the letter correctly, especially as we begin to form more difficult words.
