Aim to spend 12–15 days teaching a chapter of Beast Academy in order to finish one level in a standard school year. We recommend assigning work in Beast Academy Online by time and not by lesson—while most lessons take between 5 and 20 minutes to complete, some may take an hour or more. It's also fine not to complete every single lesson in Beast Academy Online. For students who use Beast Academy as their primary curriculum, we recommend at least 3 hours of practice per week.
