How to use it
- Plan the new pattern first, then choose review from skills rated Needs support or Developing.
- Keep the minutes. If one part runs over, shorten the next one rather than skipping text reading.
- Rate the new pattern at the end, seen cold if possible, and write what comes back next session.
The same record, without the printer
Every field on this sheet is one tap in the app, and the next lesson, the review dates and the report take care of themselves.
