  10. Suzie B. –

    This resource is so fantastic! Some of the activities on TPT are far too cutesy for the population of students I work with, but the style and layout of this one makes it simple and perfect. Really thorough and engaging! Thanks!

    • Yellow Brick Road Music –

      Thank you so much! This feedback truly means a lot to me, because, as I continue creating, I find myself more drawn to a clean (less cutesy) design. I’m so glad to hear that it’s been engaging for your students. Thanks again!

    So thorough! Thanks for including visuals for every step in the progression! Should page 33 be all blue stars? My stars appear colorless.

      Yes. Page 33 is the black and white option for those trying to save on ink 🙂
