ereks mom Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) I have several teenaged students working below grade level in math and they need a thorough review of basic math concepts. I definitely want a 7th grade textbook, worktext, or set of workbooks for each student (no online or CD programs). I've found BJU Fundamentals of Math and A Beka Basic Math (some copies have a tiny 7 in the upper left corner & some have no number). Do you know of others?

ereks mom Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 Lial's Basic College Mathematics. Thanks... I've tried this one and it's not going to work--too intimidating for these particular students. Maybe because it's a college level book and not really developed with middle schoolers in mind?

Nart Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 Saxon Course 1 - it is the public school version of Saxon 7/6. If you google Saxon course 1 you will be able to see samples that public schools post so their students have access to the book at home. You can buy a workbook that has the same problems that are in the book so the students don't have to copy out the problems. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneezyone Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) Math in Focus's middle school program is also Course 1 (Gr6), 2 (Gr7), and 3 (Gr8). Edited June 5, 2017 by Sneezyone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ereks mom Posted June 5, 2017 Author Share Posted June 5, 2017 (edited) Sorry, I thought they were older teens.Thanks for the suggestion, though! They're 8th & 9th graders, but working below grade level in their schoolwork. I'm sorry; I should've clarified.

Guest Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 BJU Fundamentals of Math is the 7th grade book. https://www.bjupresshomeschool.com/product/264945 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdventuresinHomeschooling Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 Saxon isn't grade 7, but they have an 8/7. It's fairly subtle. You could also look at using their Algebra 1/2 book as a 7th grade book. I would imagine most pre-algebra textbooks do not say Grade 7 either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rose Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 MEP7 would work well. It's an entry point for the curriculum and has ALOT of review of basic concepts. Each unit is on a different topic and if a certain review topic is unneeded you could skip that one. Also, there are three streams that you can follow based on their level. Also, it doesn't require nearly as much teacher involvement as the elementary year (thankfully!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
City Mouse Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Pearson/prentis hall middle school math books are labeled Course I, Course II, and Course III. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
