Yes, that seems to be a good method...
I am normally able to answer the thread as I go... (Some exercises, where there are many sentences, or a translation for a page or several paragraphs, work better if you just do it on your desktop document, and then copy & paste your answer...
But normally I can improvise a little "poem" "en menos que canta un gallo" or "at the drop of a hat!"
Get set, ready, go!!!!
