I hold a PhD in Educational Psychology and have 29 years of elementary education experience to include classroom teaching in grades 1-5, Enrichment, Intervention, Teacher Coaching, and Administration. I know the importance of positive social emotional health and enjoy working with students.
I know the importance of handwriting and the benefits. Research has shown that cursive writing is the most natural form of writing and that it helps students access and connect learning more efficiently when doing so. In my years of working with students, I have seen students who had poor handwriting flourish when taught and allowed to use cursive writing. It allows a restart for students, thus building their self-efficacy and self confidence with their school work.
With the pandemic, handwriting has diminished tremendously, frustrating students, parents, and teachers alike. I want to make writing fun, and this is one way!
