Very cool Elwood, it is sad my last 2 daughters were not taught cursive in school, block letter checks in their future.
I had one nun that used the circle technique, the numbers in her circle were in sequence inlike the one show.....makes me think of the yardstick motivator she used :D
Thanks for the memory sir

Yup school has sure changed from when I was a boy and not for the better. The three Rs have gone out the window. I was in a Wendy's yesterday and my bill came to $3.17. I gave the young lass a $5 bill plus 17cents in change. You should have seen her trying to make change. I finally had to tell her to stop and just give me two $1 bills. She had a very sheepish look on her face . Unbelievable. :(

I doubt if there was any religious connotation back then. Just away of making stars. The State of Israel had not even been created at that time..

Hi Elwood, its me again. I got this email several weeks ago and sent it to my email listing. One friend is good at making power point videos and he is working on this one and will send me a copy when he gets it done. We thought this was a great find and he wants to make it lasting also,
