Saxon Algebra 2 - additional practice
aly9712 posted a topic in High School and Self-Education Board
Anyone already align either IXL or Khan Academy with Saxon Algebra 2 (3rd edition, hopefully)? I'm trying not to circumvent this if I don't have to! Kiddo just wants some extra practice on lessons where Saxon only provides like 2 or 3 practice problems for new skills. Thanks! -
What to do for Algebra 2?

We have a similar thing going on. Completed Physical Science this year. Rising 7th and will be doing Biology & Algebra 2. Honestly, I figure, she will do Biology again later in highschool and will hold off on a challenging chemistry until later highschool. I'm not so sure she'd do well on the SAT subject Matter tests later, taking these courses so early and honestly, even though she loves Biology, I'm not sure of unneccesary pressures of taking this class formally so young. We finished Saxon Algebra 1 this year so I'm not concerned about math, but we may go back to do some of the AOPS algebra problems this summer. The options there seem limitless. Science, I feel is harder to find. I'd be truly happy if the highschool years (11-12th) could be mentorship or completely lab based.

Wondering about feedback. The site says it has interactive quizzes and activities for the online versions. I'm looking at the Magic Lens 1 set.

Pre-Algebra for a 10 year old?
aly9712 replied to The Governess's topic in Accelerated Learner Board
I'm sure it changes, but roughly how much time would you say your daughter spend on math outside of the class? -
Thanks guys. I was thinking the same thing but didn't want to assume so much about MUS because I've never even looked at it. I have a mathy daughter. The only appeal I had was that it would be taught with other kids and she wants to take a "class" to meet more friends. I'm thinking I'll sign her up for the co-op art and leave the math to AOPS as originally intended!

Cross posted. I had planned to do AOPS algebra next year but our coop is offerING math u see algebra. I met with the teacher and they do not plan to use the manipulatives. We are not familiar too much with this lrogram. We are completing Dolciani Prealgebra currently. Thoughts on the program and if one can still use it effectively (how good is the textbook alone) without the blocks. I really wonder why she chose this curriculum if she doesn't plan to use it fully......

Oh, I was specifically interested in the course offered by AOPS and the one from here (WTM). I didn't realize they haven't started yet. I see it's a combo of Singapore and AOPS algebra which could be interesting but I don't want her jumping around a lot either. We are finishing Dolciani prealgebra and she enjoys math but young (10) and we have been working on endurance or "grit". We also have a math mentor who could help her work through challenging problems....
