Well, this is a new one for me! So we came back from dd5 kindergarten conference...Teacher showed us a paper where daughter completely wrote her last name backwards---A complete mirror image. She had never done that before and has always written all words/letters/numbers correctly...Daughter is also an excellent reader...She wants desperately to have "permission" from teacher to start writing her name in cursive (she knows how to do it) Unfortunately teacher said no frown So I'm wondering if this backwards writing thing is just my daughter expressing her needs for more creativity or could it be something else lurking in the possible future? Anyone else with this experience? Why would this start now? It was just so odd for me to see...
