How do I separate the 2nd and 3rd grade material from Primary Language Lessons, as it is not separated in the book?
Hi Erin,
What I did was put half the lessons in Part 1-2nd grade and the other half in Part 2-3rd grade. That is 82 lessons per book.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Blessings,
Cynthia
