+There are procedures and rules which differ from the older divisions:
-  * __[[forms:start|Forms]]__ are optional for primary, but it would be good to have the team at least become familiar with them. Not only will they need to know about forms if they advance to Division I, but the forms can help organize the solving process to the team.
+  * __[[forms:start|Forms]]__ are optional for primary, but it would be good to have the team at least become familiar with them. Not only will they need to know about forms if they advance to Division I, but the forms can help organize the problem solving process for the team.
   * __[[:scoring|Scores]]__ are not usually given to primary teams. However, a coach may wish to organize parents to score the team. Why? Because the scores can help a team plan its time and decide what they need to do. Also, the team may wish to "score themselves" at a rehearsal, just to see how they think they are doing. Remember, this is about learning and feeling good about problem solving. Scores can help with that process.
   * __Feedback__ in the form of comment sheets may be given in some regions to primary teams at the tournament. If a region does not give the team any comments, a coach might ask the regional director whether that would be possible. If not, the coach could have the team parents write down a few comments for the team. KEEP THESE POSITIVE. Do not allow any negative remarks to spoil the hard effort of these young Odyssey team members.
