I love how organized the content has been formatted. I some times need something a direct route. It would be nice when I click a sheet I immediately access it rather than directed to a lesson of which I will need to open and scroll through to find the one worksheet I need to utilize. Example, Heartbeats or Steady Beat. is there any way to get provide a more direct connection if you only need 1 page?
On the Steady Beat page, if you just want the Heartbeat page, click on “Download 2,” and you will get that page. 🙂
