Focusing on negative numbers, order of operations, solving for the unknown, absolute value, least common multiple/greatest common factors, polynomials, Pythagorean theorem, surface area and volume, rational and irrational numbers, and other essential topics, Math-U-See Pre-Algebra relies on visual and hands-on learning for mastery. The Math-U-See Pre-Algebra Set includes all the required components: the Integer Block Kit, Algebra Decimal Insert Kit, Math-U-See Pre-Algebra Instruction Manual, Pre-Algebra Student Workbook and Tests, and the Math U-See Pre-Algebra Online Instruction with Video (streaming).
