McDougal Littell Algebra 1: Student Edition (C) 2004 2004

Geet service. Book arrived in great shape as promised.

These books are used by my school district, and I use them as a reference for teaching. What I like about them is they give clear examples and are fairly straightforward and user-friendly, unlike some math texts that are just a jumble of words to read. These have all the important concepts in bold, and in nice neat-looking little green-bordered boxes. And, of course, answers to odd problems in the back. If you are a teacher looking for a reference text or a parent who is home-schooling, I highly recommend this textbook series. ~ Misty teacher & tutor for over 12 years

I teach Algebra, and use this workbook for homework practice. It has 2 pages of problems for each section in the textbook, and page 2 is harder than page 1. There are NO ANSWERS in this workbook, to the dread of the students, but the answers are in the Teacher's Edition of the textbook, McDougal Littell Algebra 1 (McDougal Littell Mathematics). This is not a teaching tool, so if you don't know how to do Algebra, this isn't for you, but if you are looking for extra practice problems for students, and have the accompanying textbook, it's great.

The series of math textbooks by McDougal-Littell are excellent, not to be confused with the "workbooks"! The workbooks are intended for use as examples. As in the photo I provided, someone has to work out the problems in order to assist a student. The text usually provides enough information to figure them out, but not always. Parents can become frustrated in the process. As a high school math teacher for 20 years and now a co-op homeschool teacher, I've seen lots of confusion by parents and students. The worst problem with this workbook is that not only are there no answers worked out, but no answers at all! So accept it for what it is. It's a workbook for a parent to learn and process the problems with their child. Use the textbook to verify the process, but not necessarily to check the answers for accuracy!

My daugher was struggling with Algebra. After I got her this workbook and made her do the exercises, her grades have improved immensely, to A's and B's. I highly recommend this workbook to anyone that needs extra practive. The only downside is that the workbook does not give you the answers to the problems. So you have to work along with a parent or a teacher who can check your work to make sure it is accurate.

I hate math and will always. I admit, math is not my cup of tea so I never really paid attention back in high school but going to college, you need to know your math. I, of course, didn't do so well on my placement test for math so I had to take this beginners class for college math. Pity. This book was a requirement for the math class and I strongly believe that due to my instructor giving us tons of assignments Monday-Friday, for one whole semester, I think my math skills improved by 50% if not more. I would only recommend You buy the Used version if and only if it's a requirement for your math class. I strongly believe that some of these text books are overpriced; just like college, you pay so much to learn something and by next year, you forget most of what you learned.

Very good workbook for my son self practice at home during the summer. This workbook does not show you how to solve the problems like the school textbook. It's just for kids to review what they've learned last year. If you don't have good math skills, don't buy it for your kids. BTW, don't expect to give this book to your kids and you go watch Dr Phil.

My daughter had to do an independent study course to improve her high school GPA. We enrolled her in independent study, but the school had given out all textbooks. While she could do the work, it was proving to be tough going without seeing what the textbook was covering in a given chapter. So I searched Amazon and found the book. It arrived a few days later, and it's much better for my daughter now. We plan to doonate the book to the school when she is finished with the course. Thanks Amazon, for being there when we needed you!

lots of real life examples, clear explanations, formal maths language. thank you

Very dry
