Carlyn, Bri and Clara Progress Diary

Thank you for the input. I will definitely read the blog. We have just started the lesson plan for Prep Level C. I did not know about it until just recently.

Do you have any advice for kids who want to play with both hands prematurely? I encourage Brianna to practice with just one hand at a time before she tries with both, but she always wants to start with both hands.

Brianna's work today:

Hot Crossed Buns
R 15/15-30
R 15/15 - 31
L 19/22 -87
L 21/22 -92
L 16/22 - 67

Nursery Primer (Sight Reading 0.0) London Bridge
R 39/49 -217

Ask her to do the same task 2 times (R, L or both, if she likes to) and always write the results down and compare.
The positive progression will give more clear understanding what works the best and gives any child clear sense of what should be done vs what wants to be done first

I see eye/hand coordination development in progress. She is looking for the notes and looking for the corresponding keys.

Guess key game, cards and Alphabet Song could help to memorize geography of the keys and notes faster.
