Default the good and the beautiful help

I'm using the good and the beautiful for the first time. We just started it this week, level 5 language arts only. I have a question about the flash cards and sentence dictation. For those who've used it: Am I supposed to just jump in quizzing her on info she hasn't covered yet? Or do we introduce the card/dictations after this information has been presented? There are some easy cards, but also they get into identifying geography she hasn't learned and grammar rules she hasn't gotten to this year, and then the sentence dictation has like four spelling rules that each page covers, I mean am I supposed to spend time teaching her these then do the dictation then do the lesson? This is not making sense to me. Doesn't the course teach these things? In my head, they will teach, for instance, a grammar rule and then I will reinforce that rule with the cards/dictation. But from the curriculum, they don't say anything about that. But if we just go ahead and start them at the beginning, is she going to be just memorizing these things by trial and error? I'm confused!
