| Cursive Script Alphabet (2015) by Leni D. Anderson |
“Cursive Script Alphabet” is a reproduction of the Cursive
Script Alphabet chart with the inclusion of Egyptian hieroglyphs[1] at
the top of the chart that spells my name; the bottom center of the chart that
shows the ABC’s in hieroglyphs; and, at the upper center of the chart, an image
of a winged scarab holding the sun.
This piece reference, not only in my opinion, but by many primary & secondary educators and related professionals thoughts and opinions about cursive
writing [possibly] becoming what is being coined as the New Hieroglyphs for
future generations. At the time of this writing, the “Common Core State Standards Initiative, a national initiative to create teaching standards for grades k-12 had recommended it was no longer required to teach cursive writing in primary school.”[2]
