For more than 20 years Math-U-See’s renowned mastery-based, multisensory, student-paced program has been the answer for countless families. Math-U-See is a complete, comprehensive K-12 math curriculum that uses manipulatives to illustrate and teach the concepts. If you regularly experience tears from your child whenever new mathematical topics are introduced, you need Math-U-See’s systematic, precept-upon-precept math program.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eThe Tools and Format You Need to Master Math\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e With simple, uncluttered pages, Math-U-See is mastery-oriented, clear, to the point, and effective. In Math-U-See, new ideas are introduced step by step in a logical order, while concepts that have been mastered are reviewed periodically. The lessons are short and there are lots of opportunities for multisensory experiences, using tools such as videos and manipulatives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Math-U-See books are organized into levels, not grades, so students can proceed at their own pace as they master concepts. This is particularly helpful for the child that is not performing at grade level but would rather not have a daily reminder. Student workbooks and test booklets are softcover, and the pages are perforated and punched so they can be removed, completed, and placed in binders if you choose. Occasional fun exercises, like dot-to-dots and crossword puzzles have been incorporated into the student workbooks. Test booklets for each course have tests to be used at the end of each lesson, plus four unit tests and a final exam. Student workbook pages and tests are consumable, so each child will need their own copy. Instruction manuals, however, are hardcover books and should last the life of your teaching career. Complete answer keys with solutions are included for all problems at all levels, more a necessity at the upper levels than the lower ones.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eMagnificent Manipulatives\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Math-U-See Manipulatives are more than a supplement, they are an integral part of the curriculum. Used from the Primer through Algebra 1 levels, the manipulatives build each concept from place value through polynomials through the use of Integer Blocks, Fraction Overlays, and Algebra\/Decimal Inserts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eFor the Parents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Unlike our other math programs, Math-U-See does require a fair amount of parental involvement, especially in the younger grades. They have bent over backwards to make the lesson planning as painless as possible, but to get the most out of Math-U-See, parents should be prepared to plan, and not start the lessons unprepared. Math-U-See’s teacher guide and supplemental DVD will teach you, the parent, more than just how to solve a math problem, they will also show why the problem is solved in this manner, and when to apply the concept. On the DVDs, each lesson is demonstrated with such kind-hearted enthusiasm, I now understand why children line up at homeschool conferences to give the instructor, Steve Demme, a hug. DVDs can be played on a DVD player or computer; however, Windows 10 users will need to download a separate video player. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eIt Is Time for the Student to Become the Teacher\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e If the lesson planning has been your least favorite part of Math-U-See, you will be thrilled to know that in all the high-school-level books, your child will be expected to work more independently. The instruction manual is written for the student and he will be the one watching the DVD presentation before beginning each lesson. The instruction manuals also include complete answers with step-by-step solutions for all the exercises and tests and there is extra instruction for the enrichment problems.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eDigital Pack Included!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Every Math-U-See Algebra 1 set purchased from us will also include the new Digital Pack. Accessible through any internet browser, you will have streaming video versions of Math-U-See’s Instructional DVD, a PDF of the Instruction Manual, access to an online version of their Digital Manipulatives, and convenient links to a number of their free online resources. Lifetime access to all of these resources is included free with the purchase of the Math-U-See Algebra 1 Curriculum set.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eFeel Good About \u003ci\u003eKnowing\u003c\/i\u003e Your Child Is Really Getting It\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Math-U-See is laid out with step-by-step procedures for introducing, practicing, mastering, and reviewing concepts. How do you know when your child has \"mastered\" a math concept? Not just when he gets the answers right but when he can teach the concept back to you, especially if he is able to do so with a word problem. Math-U-See will show you how. So, if you want to give your child an exceptionally solid mathematical foundation; if your child is shaky on the basics; or if you are just looking a no-frills, common sense program; you are sure to be pleased with Math-U-See.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eWhat Is Taught In The Algebra 1 Level?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cli\u003eCommutative and Associative Properties\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eOrder of Operations\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eSolving for an Unknown with One Variable\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDistributive Property\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCartesian Coordinates\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eGraphing a Line\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eSlope-Intercept Formula\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eGraphing Parallel Lines and the Equation of a Line\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eGraphing Perpendicular Lines\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eFinding the Slope-Intercept Formula with Different Givens\u003c\/li\u003e--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eIn What Order Do I Use the Math-U-See Levels?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e There are seven books for elementary grades which can be used in the following order: Primer, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Epsilon, and Zeta.
