Is this common now?
My DD's reception teacher insists they learn joined-up. Even when they learn individual letter formation itswith all the loopy bits as if it will be joined-up. It's really much harder than print writing and seems crazy as they are learning to read print fonts and can't read joined-up.
Anyone know the theory behind this approach?
