22B, thank you for the reminder! I feel guilty if I skip part of a lesson, as though I am somehow cheating. I also have a hard time with determining "mastery". For me it means 100%. I think there was a thread on the subject of what is mastery?
As time permits, or if an optional activity is something I think DS would enjoy, we do optional activities. We like that many of the optional activities are hands-on versus writing, drawing or coloring...things my DS really struggles with completing.
I appreciate the reminder that if DS doesn't need to do all the activities to master the material, we really don't need to do them all. It is okay to skip.
