I beleive it was third grade that we progressed to cursive writing but I must have been impatient to get on with it because I turned in my first assignment in cursive on an occasion when we weren't asked to use cursive. I hadn't yet learned all the tricks of this new writing style but I was trying to show off anyway. My balloon got burst big time when the teacher pointed out that there were supposed to be spaces between each word not just between sentences. You see I had strung all the letters in my sentences together sothewordswereconnectedtoo
