Why Johnny Can't Write

Common Core is under attack from all sides. Textbook squabbles are sweeping every state.

Education is more like a political caucus among people who do not have a great deal in common.

My nieces and nephews do not learn cursive writing, and this is supposed to free up time for more important topics. But their standard writing is pretty poor looking, and they do not seem to be learning any other important things.

What could be more important than writing, and thereby expressing oneself?

If we cannot write, we are slaves.
