Took 6 months of lessons before music teacher became ill.  Completed Accelerated Piano Adventures for the older beginner.  A year later, I am redoing the book by myself, but with changes.  I am focusing on singing the song snippets while playing, getting my 2 hands to play better together, recognizing the notes and the corresponding keys on the piano, playing without looking at my fingers, and as a challenge, learning the teacher duet pieces at the bottom of most pages. 

I then practice playing the teacher duet part with the student part.  The first 2 showed the teacher duet fingering for the left hand.  However, the 3rd one only shows the fingering for the 1st measure.  I believe, I would use the same fingering (both left and right hand) for the next 4 measures.

Is this correct?

But then I am not sure about the last 3 measures.  See attached image. 

What should the fingering be for each of the 8 measures?

Thanks!

Are these 8 measures that difficult?

I would continue with 1-5-1 for all the measures where the pattern looks the same.

Do you have any reason to feel like you should do something else?
