Ok I have been searching but where do you find the extras to the little math and little reader?

Also where do I download the next weeks lessons? I only have week one for both programs.

Also where do you find the premium files that you can use your loyalty points for?

i'm not sure what you mean by the extras...  as for lessons mine has been set up so that under the courses tab lessons are numbered (001,002,003) but they aren't set up like that for you?  they were automatically uploaded for me with the upgrade. 
and it looks like the premium files are under the library with everything else under specific catagories but they have a little shield to the right of the title.  i think the shield has a 'p' on it demarking 'premium'. 
i hope that helps a little.  i'm sure you'll be up and running in no time big grin

I have to say that I am VERY impressed by the new Little Reader. You guys did an excellent job. As a teacher, I have tried making up my own curriculum for my son. This was extremely time consuming and I felt like I wasn't able to accomplish everything I wanted. This program is great. Yes, the price is expensive, but it is clear that a lot of time and thought has gone into creating it. If it helps my son learn to read and in turn expand his mind, then the price is well worth it. Thank you so much for delivering an easy and effective way to teach our little ones.

Okay guys,

I have emailed you twice and posted questions several times asking if I needed to buy Little Math before the upgrade along with LR and no one ever responded. Do I need LM to get the upgrade or is it included? I can't afford the new prices for LM, if I would need to buy it... I would think it a little rude that no one ever responded, if that's the case. Please advise. Thanks.

Hi meandlinc, sorry we missed your post!  BTW, if you emailed via our Customer Support desk, you should have definitely received a reply, most probably within 24 hours. If not, it probably meant we never received it.

As for your question, I'm not sure exactly waht you mean.  If you have LR or LM before 1.5, then you qualify for the upgrade for that respective system.  You don't need both LR and LM in order to qualify for an upgrade, if that's what you meant.

Ok I have been searching but where do you find the extras to the little math and little reader?

Also where do I download the next weeks lessons? I only have week one for both programs.

Also where do you find the premium files that you can use your loyalty points for?

The 'extras' are all in your ACcount Management, Software Systems tab.  You see 3 steps.  Step 3 is where you download all the rest of the content.

Premium files are in the download section in their respective Categories (or simply search so show BrillKids content).  However, you don't need any right now (so don't spend your points on them!) because so far we've only released what is already included in the 6 month curriculum.

Viv, LM Semester 1 curriculum will be released later this week.

And thanks all for your encouraging words!

I bought LR LM a month ago with the idea of waiting for a new system. Do I now have to pay for the new system too?

No plans yet for a 2nd year curriculum but we may do that eventually.
Foreign languages curriculums also planned, starting with traditional mandarin. Hard to say when cos so many things to do! smile

No, you are upgraded to the Lifetime plan.  Just go to your Account Management and download the latest version adn the content packs.  However, if you really want to pay then PM me with your credit card details.

Like Viv, I'm a little confused about the new LM. At step 3, I don't see any curriculum to download. There's also nothing loaded in the "curriculum" tab when I launch the new LM. I assume the content is not released yet? Thanks in advance!

Sorry, it used to have a Little Math section below the LR section, where it would say, "coming soon", but I don't know what happened to it!

Will get it fixed asap!

Thank you for responding... No, when I read it, I was unsure if the lessons also included LM and if I needed to purchase that to use LM or if it would be one whole program. I will send you my emails and will try and find the posts - I NEVER received an answer and I would have bought LM if that was the case, I was actually putting that off because of what the postings said. It sounded, to me at least that LM lessons would be included.

I am just really disappointed because I actually put off buying LM waiting for the new system.

i have just downloaded new LR and am in process of upgrading LM so i havent really seen the whole new look yet butI think the biggest positive change is the lesson plans. Almost everyone would have a hard time in keeping up with the daily lessons , and there are many forum discussions on this topic . this helps the Not-so -organised group to which i belong.

On the negative side , I do feel bad about the price hike. i was fortunate and had LR/LM before that but I think the price will deter a LOT of parents esp those who have to convert to USD.

True, I was actually putting off buying LM a few months later. Did expect a price rise, but not so much beyond affordability. I feel I should have gotten it along with LR.

KL,

I know it sounds silly to ask, but is there anything like a second chance for those who were putting off to buy the software, but now unable to...? Sad

Hi KL,

I have downloaded the latest version but I am unable to find anything under the courses tab. However I found it in the categories section.

What do I do? I just read that in the courses tab the lessons would be numbered as 001,002 etc ....

Why am I not getting it do i have to do something to get it right?

I just wanted to say that the new curriculum is great.  My son has a renewed interest in the presentations.  I especially appreciate the videos in each multimedia presentation.  I asked him what his favorite part was and he said everything.  I am quite thankful as we are mainly doing phonics stuff now so I really don't have time to arrange a whole little reader curriculum as I was before, but with this he is increasing his sight word vocabulary too. I just wanted to commend you guys for a great and very intuitive program.

Although I am sure you guys are so exhausted after tis major revamp I just wanted to add in my wish list for upcoming versions:
1)I'm sure you guys are planning on doing this but the presentations are so great it would be wonderful if we could use the same ones and get some of the forums native speakers to do the exact same presentation in their native language.
2) For the phonics lessons I like that the words are broken up but (and I don't know how to feasibly do this) it would be great if the word was broken up vocally as well such as c-a-t (verbally) as the corresponding letter was highlighted in the alternative color.  As I mentioned I know this would be hard to do and may not be possible, but I wanted to put it out there.

Thanks again guys!Also it's cool that we are all starting the curriculum at the same time so we can compare notes on how are kids are progressing with it.
