Algebra 1

For a student with low reading level they now don't have to skip higher math! My dyslexic daughter gets math but her low reading level stood in the way of being successful with most math programs. This is the most clear and simple presentation of Algebra I have ever seen and I have been a teacher for 18 years! It presents and organizes the vocabulary at the beginning of every chapter. It doesn't just give you the steps to perform but helps you understand why those steps solve the problem. She started Algebra in the Abecka book and was doing good although it took a long time to get through. When we switched over I had her review the chapters she had already done. She had done well (every grade over 85 and some 100s) But she redid the chapters because the vocabulary was so much clearer and her comment was with the old program she knew what to do but now she understands why to do it and because she understands she is not skipping any steps anymore. She is now making all A s and is moving through the book at twice the speed. It is so good to see her confidence grow because she gets it. We bought all pacemaker subjects for next year It has been hard watching her fall further behind in other areas due to her reading but now she can be successful even though her dyslexia seriously limits her reading level.

Pages missing. Not worth the hassle of returning.

Been using this textbook for years with my students. Great step by step guides on how to solve the equations. Could use more practice problems, but you can just look for what you are needing specifically on line.

they can do a better job of explaining concepts they tend to skip a step or two without showing it and that has thrown my daughter off several times

Love it. gives clear instruction and examples

This book was in great shape and great price.

I received this product in about a week's time. I was quite pleased with this outcome. This information I will pass on to others.

Perfectly met my needs for the classroom!
