Use these single-page checklists to track the progress of your youngest students in Western riding lessons using the Learning Levels curriculum. The optional Rainbow Level* is a special introductory level just for very young riders, aged 4 through 7, who are not yet able to ride and care for a pony independently.
Students are introduced to horses and riding through simplified learning objectives that prepare them for Red Level knowledge and skills.
These printable checklists are an easy way to record the knowledge and skills your students gain in lessons. We check off each objective when the student has demonstrated sufficient knowledge and skills for that objective.
This makes it easy for everyone — students, parents, and other instructors — to understand exactly what each student is learning at each Level.
TIP: Pages are formatted with margins suitable for 3-hole folders or binders. We suggest keeping the official pages for each student in a big binder or file box in your office, so all instructors in your program can easily update checklists after lessons.
You may also want to give printed copies, or share the file, with students and parents so everyone is (literally) on the same page!
*This file contains only Rainbow Level sheets, but you’ll also find Rainbow Level included in the Horsemanship Progress Sheets, along with the other seven Levels in the mounted curriculum.
