Re: getting through the book

I have a wiggly 6yo K student (boy) who is only doing about one lesson a week, so there is no way he will finish level A this year. It is better to build a good foundation than worry about finishing in a specific set time.

Plus on the schedule RS is on right now you actually start Algebra in 7th, which is a year earlier than many other program do, so you have wiggle room.

Heather hsing:
dd 11 doing level D
dd 9 doing level C
dd 8 doing level B
ds 6 doing level A

Re: getting through the book

Hello Betsy,

If you are teaching math consistently, doing the games, and he/she is understanding, then you have nothing to worry about.

Level A is only 77 lessons, and you are almost half way through the book.

I agree with the others who wrote, take your time, because understanding is more important than rushing through, just so you can say you taught it.

You may not finish Level A this year, but finish it next year (or over the summer) and proceed with Level B, most moms find they can skip the first 23 lessons.

Please let me know if you have any more questions. You can email me directly at Carissa@alabacus.com .

Thank you for giving your child a RightStart in Math,
