Algebra Prep Workbooks by Math Essentials

Disclosure: I received this complimentary product through the Homeschool Review Crew.

Today’s review features a detailed look at Basic Math Skills Rescue Parts 1 and 2 by Math Essentials. These books cover six clusters of essential math concepts from Whole Numbers through Pre-Algebra. These books are available from the Math Essentials website. Each purchase includes access to their online Math Resource Center and Video Library.

Basic Math Skills Rescue Parts 1 and 2 are full of review exercise worksheets for your students to solidify their math foundation in preparation for classes from elementary through Algebra. As your student masters these concepts they’ll be able to quickly and accurately compute them. These books also help build their problem-solving and numeric recall skills. Both books provide continuous practice questions with a space to write the answers in the side column. The number of math problems varies per page but each allows for ample opportunities to perfect the concepts.

Whole Numbers
Fractions
Decimals
Percents

Bam Bam and Bear used one worksheet from Basic Math Skills Rescue Parts 1 and 2 each day to review math concepts. Though Bear is in 8th Grade, he still likes to have a quick math warm-up before he begins a new lesson. These workbooks are just what we need to prepare for high school math. Bam Bam is currently doing 3rd Grade math so the worksheets at the beginning of Part 1 were used by him. Again, it is important to note that this book does not include lessons for instruction, those are provided via online tutorials. Using these videos will be the added review and boost of confidence your child needs to be successful. The Helpful Hints at the top of the page also give guidance if your child forgets the concepts needed to complete a problem. We recommend these books from Math Essentials to families with students in 3rd to 9th Grade. Building a strong math foundation equips your child for Algebra as well as other advanced math, science, and technical classes.
