Description
Category Description for Math Mammoth Grade 8 (Color Version)
It is here! Author, Maria Miller, heard the requests of the people and has developed a Grade 8 Math Mammoth curriculum. This study provides a unique math focus, as it is not a Pre-Algebra program nor a full Algebra 1. The program is broken up into A and B semester Worktexts, a test book, and an answer key for all practice and test problems.
This year of Math Mammoth is for those students who need one more year of the methodology and to build Algebra readiness skills. Not all Algebra 1 skills will be covered in this one-year course, but it will lay a solid foundation for Algebraic concepts. There are options for the path your student takes after this course. Students can follow the CCS guidelines and they would not be repeating any Algebra 1 skills. Students could go directly into a Geometry course and continue from there. Many Algebra 2 courses will have an overview of Algebra 1 concepts, meaning students could jump into an Algebra 2 course with the benefit of that review. If you want students to have a complete Algebra 1 foundation, finding an Algebra 1 course and focusing on the later skills of, polynomials, quadratic equations, rational algebraic expressions, radical algebraic expressions, and inequalities will round out their Algebra skills.
What’s covered in this level:
- Teaches traditional Pre-algebra and Algebra 1 topics.
- Introduction to functions.
- Exponent laws and Scientific Notation.
- Geometric transformations, angle relationships, and volume.
- Graphing and solving linear equations and proportional relationships.
- Irrational numbers, square and cube roots, and the Pythagorean Theorem.
- Solving systems of linear equations (in two variables).
- Statistics: scatter plots and two-way tables.
There are a few materials you will need for this course and many you may already have around your house: tracing paper, a ruler (inches and millimeters), a compass, a protractor, and graphing paper.
Currently, there are no lesson videos available for Grade 8. The hope is they will be produced in the future. ~Rebecca
