The sentence that uses a slippery slope argument is:

If children are not taught to write, they will lose their ability to concentrate and fall behind in other subjects.

This argument suggests that not teaching handwriting will lead to negative consequences (loss of concentration and poorer performance in other subjects) without necessarily providing evidence that such a drastic outcome will occur.
