I read that stuff like playing with clay, mazes, and tracing letters are good for kids (and dyslexic/dysgraphic or forcibly converted to right-handed adults switching back, ahem) to develop their fine motor skills.
And I posit the hypothesis: the reason your elementary school teachers taught you cursive was not because they believed you would actually use it, but because the process of lettering cursive would polish up your fine motor skills.
Also because some portion of your class IS learning disabled in a way that's helped by switching to cursive, and you need to be able to read it. Ahem.
