I accidently did the original letters and numbers for me (the orange book) without the Teacher's guide (I didn't know there was one), and it was okay...I struggled a little bit trying to figure out what they wanted, but I was able to do it. I'm wondering if I skipped this book if I'd be very lost or would have a similar experience?
Your experience would probably be similar to your experience with Letters and Numbers For Me. The publisher does not recommend doing these books without the Teacher.
