As a teacher of younger students I printed so often that I almost forgot cursive handwriting. My printing now is a kind of unique combination of printing and cursive. Most people say they really like it because it's easy to read yet pretty. It's almost like the writing above this comment box that says "Post a comment." The Getty Museum has some of the most amazing manuscripts and the writing is truly art! Enjoy the Oscars tonight if you watch... I can't wait! Going to get my popcorn and give thumbs up or down to the fashions, etc... :)Darylynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08934801515976691274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15530750.post-54738382451763548652011-02-27T13:53:11.283-05:002011-02-27T13:53:11.283-05:00I wish I was better at cursive.

Now years later and computer keys, my script has changed to half printing and half script and far from neat. <br /><br />We are in a winter warning with snow and ice through tomorrow. Yucky!! ;-} Have a lovely weekend ahead my friend.

The Palmer Method was taught in third grade by an unmarried older lady who said the only was to justify my handwriting would be to become a doctor ! Funny , by writing smaller , I had more control , but then she complained it was too small for her to read . The current legibility depends on the time allotted and the importance to the recipient .<br />Keep warm and have a wonderful day !Katyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10593799497391790252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15530750.post-21295356351699609762011-02-24T09:52:34.085-05:002011-02-24T09:52:34.085-05:00Hi Annie,

I guess I am always in a hurry or just don't have the patience or something?? Yikes to 30's for you! I was reading in our local paper a cold snap is coming down from the gulf of Alaska and we are expecting snow in San Francisco and snow as low as 500 FT. The coldest in over 30 years! Hope you have a lovely day!

So yes, I agree with you: computers have ruined handwriting for most children.<br />Have a lovely day :)Kiahttp://www.italiancozycorner.benoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15530750.post-11427554028976507002011-02-24T02:21:27.243-05:002011-02-24T02:21:27.243-05:00Very interesting, I never made a connection betwee...Very interesting, I never made a connection between handwritting and art.<br /><br />They didn't teach penmanship when I was in grammar school.
