Quiver0f10 Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 Are these stand alone math courses? What would your 4 year high school plan look like using these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valerie in MI Posted July 18, 2008 Share Posted July 18, 2008 We're just starting Beginning Algebra but I think we can do this: Beginning Algebra + Some of Advanced Algebra 8th Rest of Advanced Algebra and some of Geometry 9th Rest of Geometry and Trig 10th Calculus and Statistics 11th/12th Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Katia Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Jean, LOF Fractions and Decimals = Pre-Algebra It is not 'just' fractions and decimals, but all that is needed for a pre-algebra program. LOF Beginning Algebra = Algebra 1 LOF Advanced Algebra = Algebra 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpupg Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Are these stand alone math courses? What would your 4 year high school plan look like using these? Yes. However, I must add that we also use Singapore's NEM to add practice and for their different slant on things. Skimpy practice sets are a perennial issue with LOF. So far, my ds has done Algebra I and Geometry with LOF. For next year, his 8th grade, he will do the Statistics course. On his high school transcript: 9th: Advanced Algebra 10th: Trig & Pre-Calc (using Singapore College Math and/or parts of LOF Calculus) 11th & 12th: Calculus at the local uni. At least, that's the plan at this point :) Karen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela H in Texas Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Everyone answered you already. We used LOF as a secondary (in some cases tertiary) math course. It's fun. Anyway, so she did Algebra I through Trig after having already done those courses. She's doing Calculus but will take Calculus at the college so it was a precursor for that.

MIch elle Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 as the others. The only differences are the presentation, the types and amount of problems. LoF has a whole lot less problems than std. algebra.
