With students using screens more and more even for school assignments, the skill of handwriting is beginning to diminish.

Science affirms the importance of handwriting in cementing ideas in our memory and improving academic skills and grades. “A recent study in Frontiers in Psychology monitored brain activity in students taking notes and found that those writing by hand had higher levels of electrical activity across a wide range of interconnected brain regions responsible for movement, vision, sensory processing and memory,” reports Scientific American.

Kari will be using WRITE NOW™: The Getty-Dubay® Program for Handwriting Success™ to teach italic and cursive handwriting. This class is open to students 3rd grade through 12th grade, whether they are learning cursive for the first time or simply needing to improve neatness in penmanship.
