Dear Muriel,

Thanks for your post. Yes, if your daughter recognizes 5 on her hand and on the abacus then move on. Also, you can use the same objects or 5 different. From what you are writing I think you are doing a fine job. Remember, when you read the objectives take note if it says introduce or master. Many concepts in Level B are being introduced initially and will come back to be mastered. Often when you move forward three lessons then the previous lesson will fall into place. So, in essence you answered your own questions.

Do feel free to email, post or call with any other questions you might have.

Sincerely, Rosine

Thank you so much! Great advice and reassurance. Much appreciate your response back.
Muriel
