The perfect way to begin your students’ school day! Cross-curricular daily practice gets your first grade students focused and engaged—and ready to learn. The daily lessons provide practice of language, math, and reading skills that support your core curriculum. The meaningful 10 to 15 minutes of daily practice helps sharpen students’ skills and helps you see where your students need to improve. With a detailed scope and sequence, you will always know the skills that your students are practicing. Daily Fundamentals lessons are ideal for morning work, bell ringers, homework, and informal assessment. The daily practice and review prepares students for success on assessments and state testing. How it works: • Monday–Friday: Full-page daily activities provide practice of grade-level language, math, and reading skills, focusing on one skill in each subject area. • The daily lessons progress in difficulty as students move through Day 1 to Day 5, and the weekly units progress in difficulty throughout the year. The 30 weeks of first grade skill practice covers: • Language: grammar, mechanics, spelling, and vocabulary • Math: operations and algebraic thinking, number and operations in base 10, measurement and data, time, money, and geometry • Reading: main idea and details, sequence, fantasy and reality, fact or opinion, character, author’s purpose, and compare and contrast Daily activities often include open-ended questions that require higher-order thinking skills. These types of questions can be used to promote peer-to-peer discussions as students share and discuss answers, while also fostering critical thinking skills. 200 pages. From Evan-Moor. Learn More

The Essential Algebra for Advanced High School and SAT is a 241-page math book in the Mathematical Reasoning series and is an ‘essential’ resource for building the foundation of ongoing excellence in mathematics. This book offers an in-depth approach to teaching math skills focusing on important algebraic concepts that are vital to a student’s success in advanced high school mathematics. This book is broken down into ten algebraic concepts:

• Understanding Terms and Order of Operations
• Understanding the Family of Real Numbers
• Rationals and Irrationals
• Working with Terms and Polynomials
• Polynomial Division, Factoring, and Rational Expressions
• Solving Equations and Inequalities
• Ratio, Proportion, and Percent
• How Algebra is Used in Geometry
• Understanding Functions
• Working With Quadratic Equations and Functions

Algebra is essentially the language of all advanced mathematics courses. It is generalized arithmetic, so the rules that apply when we are working with number and fraction operations—including the knowledge of factors and multiples—also apply when we are working with algebra.

Without this knowledge and these skills, students often struggle or even fail in advanced mathematics courses. Imagine a good high school student who sees a problem like 3•x•y•4 and hesitates to write 12xy because he or she is unsure of the rules that govern multiplication. Or they don't understand how to add 2x to 1/4y to combine it into one entire fraction. Or why –62 is different than (–6)2. It is easy to see that not having a strong understanding of the foundational rules of algebra can stop even the smartest students from succeeding in advanced high school math courses.

The lessons within this book teach fundamental arithmetic principles that govern algebra so that students can apply them, as needed, in advanced mathematical courses and in life. The book begins with the definition of a "term" and the facts of when you can cancel and when you cannot. It discusses the importance of factors and multiples and integer rules. It teaches addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of fractions – not by doing the problems up and down like they are mostly done in elementary school, but by doing them sideways just like they are done later in algebra and in higher-level math. This helps make everything so much easier down the road!

The explanations are clear and followed with basic step-by-step procedures to show students how to master and apply those fraction concepts, negative number operations, exponent rules, work with square roots, and doing real life percent problems with charts and tables, just like those on the SATs. Concepts are purposefully repeated in different settings, so students will keep re-applying what they learn throughout the book. The language is friendly to put students at ease and increase their confidence while learning concepts that are often confusing.

This book reviews the necessary reading strategies needed to translate word problems, but it is not the primary focus of the book. The book Understanding Algegra I  (also part of the Mathematical Reasoning series) devotes large sections to many types of word problems and many useful strategies if deeper study of this topic is desired.

In the last two chapters of the book, students are asked to apply the algebra they have just learned to an overview of problems in geometry. Also included is review of some important techniques that students frequently struggle with involving both linear and quadratic equations.

This book also includes an appendix of topics used as a review, but also includes new information that can be considered enrichment for students who may want to learn more. Teaching support and answers are also included.

The Prima Latina Teacher Guide has the answers to the Student Book (#6204) as well the Tests (and Key) for the Prima Latina program.

Are you looking for a gentle introduction to Latin and a course that prepares your young student for a more advanced study of the language? Prima Latina is specifically designed for students and teachers with no Latin background.

This course was developed for children in 1st-4th grades who are still becoming familiar with English grammar and wish to learn Latin at a slower pace and learn English grammar in the process. Its goal is to teach and reinforce an understanding of the basic parts of speech while introducing Latin. It benefits the student by teaching him half of the vocabulary in Latina Christiana and grounding him in the fundamental concepts of English grammar, the key to Latin study.

The grammar lessons are set forth in a form appropriate for primary grades. The review lessons that follow each unit provide the consistent review needed to master Latin. With clear explanations and easy-to-read lessons in a two-color format, Prima Latina is perfect for those teachers and parents who would like to start their students on an early study of Christian Latin.

Prima Latina is also the perfect preparation for Latina Christiana.
