It is no less relevant today than any other subject. And it's educators that politicians will listen to before the man in the street.Felix09noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654707306721822289.post-87452086378367583582012-06-17T07:51:26.174-11:002012-06-17T07:51:26.174-11:00OUTSTANDING!

Thompson (1881- ) and Anna Isabell (Brutt) Thompson (1883- ). He had a brother Royall A. (1913- ) and a sister Zelma F. (1912- ). The parents were both born in Nebraska hence the card to friends there. <br /><br /> I was also able to find Dena J. Chestem but her sister is shown in the 1910 Census to be Daisy. They were living with their father Olea A. Chestem in Decatur, Nebraska. He was born in Norway.<br /><br />In 1910 Dena was 14 and Daisy Inez was 11anyjazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03319237414264543250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654707306721822289.post-65872116465956556552012-06-15T04:59:09.720-11:002012-06-15T04:59:09.720-11:00I understand your anger and know that politicians ...I understand your anger and know that politicians are behind much of the craziness that goes on in school districts these days. That said, I have also read far too many articles from educators that cursive is not necessary anymore and they are choosing to not teach it. I have also spoken to some local teachers who believe time is better spent teaching something other than cursive. I think it's a mistake and have no qualms about calling people out on it. And when I say educators, I didn't specifically call out teachers, they are only one part of education team. Principles and school boards are just as much to blame. Some school districts will continue to teach it while others won't. And if you feel so passionately about this it might have been nicer to sign your name and not use "anonymous."Tattered and Losthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00208918251232477186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2654707306721822289.post-70120929363068477762012-06-15T04:38:46.676-11:002012-06-15T04:38:46.676-11:00One small correction- it is a stupid choice made b...One small correction- it is a stupid choice made by POLITICIANS. Educators are the scapegoats. We don't get to choose what we teach anymore. Stop blaming us, please.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
