Why Are U.S. Schools No Longer Allowed to Teach This?

States are beginning to reject the idea that kids can do without learning cursive handwriting.

Most importantly from our perspective is many historical documents like the Constitution and Declaration of Independence are written in cursive. If future citizens can’t read cursive they can’t read the Constitution in it’s original form and will be forced to rely on “translations.”

It's a national fight to keep cursive writing in American classrooms. In history, writing and reading cursive helped to determine the literate from the illiterate.

In the argument for cursive, Bateman, a 72-year-old state representative from Idaho, says cursive conveys intelligence and grace, engages creativity and builds brain cells.

“Modern research indicates that more areas of the human brain are engaged when children use cursive handwriting than when they keyboard,” said Bateman, who handwrites 125 ornate letters each year. “We’re not thinking this through. It’s beyond belief to me that states have allowed cursive to slip from the standards.”

At least seven states — California, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Massachusetts, North Carolina and Utah — have faught to keep the cursive requirement.

Legislation passed in North Carolina and elsewhere couples cursive with memorization of multiplication tables as twin “back to basics” mandates.

They further argue that scholars of the future will lose the ability to interpret valuable cultural resources — historical documents, ancestors’ letters and journals, handwritten scholarship — if they can’t read cursive. If they can’t write it, how will they communicate from unwired settings like summer camp or the battlefield?

“The Constitution of the United States is written in cursive. Think about that,” Bateman said.
