mom31257 Posted September 28, 2012 Share Posted September 28, 2012 Ds is in 4th grade and will finish BJU 4th math right after Christmas. He is definitely a kid that understands math easily, even concepts that he hasn't been taught yet. I would like to have him on track to do Algebra 1 in 8th grade using Lial's Beginning Algebra. Would those of you who've used Lial's recommend Lial's BCM in 7th? He likes BJU math, especially the length of the lesson. I also own some of the LOF books. Should I just continue BJU and try to finish through their 7th grade book by the end of 6th, or should I change to something else to get him ready for Lial's or some other Pre-Algebra that you might recommend? Thanks for any suggestions! 4th: BJU 4th/?? 5th:?? (LOF Fractions) 6th:?? (LOF Decimals) 7th: Lial's BCM & LOF Pre-Algebra with Biology 8th: Lial's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momling Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 I would stick with what works! Especially with math, it's nice to keep the same scope & sequence. If you like BJU, keep doing it. If it's too slow, accelerate a little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
