Home School???

Question

I am currently taking an online school. (Flvs) I want my mom to teach me algabra offline. How do I go about doing this?

Answer 1

Ask your public school for used text book and/or teacher book.  If they can't give it to you, they can throw it away in your presence and you can get it out of the trash can.

Answer 2

Teaching Textbooks is a great program, check it out at:

Good luck and God bless! : )

Answer 3

buy a textbook that can help u study more about algebra.

Answer 4

VideoText Interactive and Math U See are great programs - they're both taught by DVD/DVDRom and are very concept based.  VTI is a bit pricey, but it's so worth it.  My son is in MUS right now for the stuff before pre-algebra, and will start VTI next spring.

Here are the websites:

Answer 5

There are quite a few homeschooling algebra books out there. There is also Cliffs Quick Review books you can buy almost anywhere that sells books. It really depends what you're looking for.

http://purplemath.com is still technically online, but it's not FLVS. It's a great resource for Algebra.

As far as the requirements of FLVS, I'm not sure. If you plan to graduate as a homeschooler, there isn't really a problem. However, if you plan to graduate from the public school (via FLVS), you'll need to see how you can get credit for the Algebra.

Answer 6

This website has lots of information about different math texts and curriculums:  http://www.cathyduffyreviews.com/math/ma...

I would say that you look through the options with your mother, so you can decide which program seems best for you and her and what she can afford.

Good luck!!

Answer 7

You get an algebra book you and she like.  Borrow one from the Library or get one at Barnes and Nobel.

Answer 8

buy a textbook.  saxon is hellish cause it's boring, but it's good for homeschooling.  a beka book isn't bad either.
