swimmermom3 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 I have an acquaintance who would like to use one author for all of high school math. Her son has done Saxon through 8/7. She really likes the look of the Larson texts, but is unsure of which ones to use since it looks like he may offer more than one option per level. I know nothing about Larson texts and said I would ask here. Her son is fairly sharp at math so please keep that in mind. I told her she should come here and ask for herself since you all were a friendly bunch, but no go. :tongue_smilie: I forgot to add that Algebra I will be done in next year in 8th grade.

kiana Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 If she's using the HS sequence she can just do algebra 1, geometry, algebra 2, precalc, so I'm assuming you're asking more about the college sequence. Beginning algebra, elementary algebra, and introductory algebra are all algebra 1. Intermediate algebra is algebra 2. Precalc is precalc. College algebra is algebra 3 and covers the non-trig part of precalc. Trigonometry covers the trig part of precalc. College algebra + trigonometry is also precalc. This is true for pretty much any college developmental sequence, not just Larson. If there are other texts you've found that you don't know what they are for, post them here and I'll tell you what they are and where they fit in the curriculum.
