Lots of review is built into the course. Graded hymn arrangements are included, as well as original songs that reinforce the lessons or teach Biblical qualities. Each 3-ring binder comes complete with twenty lessons, over fifty flash cards (with storage pouch), assignment/practice record sheets, certificate, instructions, and answer key!
*To save you money, rather than purchase individual books on the same level, for several students within the same household, we also have additional Activity Sheet Packets which may be purchased, for a fraction of the book price. (These also include an additional certificate, practice record sheets, and reward stickers.)
