    No I don’t the the state of Georgia should remove cursive writin. If they do remove cursive writing we wont know how to write cursive when we go to other places like russians. Any ways it goes my mom makes me learn how to write cursive.

    I don’t think the GDOE should cursive writing bcause when we need to sign a check we need to know how to write in cursive so somone can’t forge our name. We also need to learn how to write in cursive so we can have extra skills.

    I say they shouldn’t remove cursive writing because when we have to go on a trip to a place like Russia, some of us won’t know how to write or read cursive.

      You, as well as several of your classmates, continue to use the word “want” instead of “won’t”. As previously discussed in class, I am wondering if it stems from mispronunciation. I am not sure. What do you think is the cause?

      If you take a trip to Russia, and you do not know how to speak or write Russian, will that be a greater hinderance than not knowing how to write cursive writing in English?
