.... Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 TIA for any replies! Does anyone know if LOF Geometry can be used after an Algebra 1 course, but before Algebra 2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmmetler Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 It's expected to be used after LoF advanced algebra, but I don't think it would be a big problem to use it after most Algebra I classes, especially if it was a pretty comprehensive book. My DD did it after AOPS Beginning algebra but before AOPS Geometry, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.... Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 Ok, this is exactly our plan, too. We're going back to AOPS after we finish Lial's. So, we want to do LOF Geometry over the winter/spring and then start AOPS Geometry next summer. Thanks!! Did she like the LOF Geometry? Is it worth working through?

mumto2 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 My dd did it after Algebra 1 (A beka) without a problem. I think she had to look up how to do a couple of more advanced algebra problems along the way but nothing huge. Fyi, It is the only formal geometry book she has ever done so it is pretty complete because she has moved on to other math challenges fine. Good test scores etc. Plans to be a math major.

.... Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 Thanks for the reply! We liked the algebra book, so I think we'll continue with the series. We've been working on Lial's Algebra also (which is a college text), but the Life of Fred Algebra was more enjoyable. They both seem to be about the same difficulty level (but I'm not a math expert or anything). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
