About
This course should be commenced once the student completes the Prealgebra textbook and is the equivalent of the Algebra 1 course usually taken in eighth grade or high school.
Of the two Algebra 1 courses in our curriculum, this is is a less in-depth option which is appropriate for average to strong math students who wish to learn the material thoroughly without making math a major focus. The Jacobs text presents the material clearly and concisely, and provides plenty of practice exercises.
One thing we like about this text is that the exercises at the end of each section include a review of previous material. The textbook also includes a midterm and two final exam tests.
We recommend purchasing the textbook and answer key, but the teacher's guide is optional. It is fine to purchase an earlier edition, and both text and answer guide are often on sale for very affordable prices in used book websites.
