Description
Publisher's Description of Power Basics: Geometry Student Book (2021 Edition)
Student text focuses on one concept at a time, illustrates lessons with concrete models and examples, and provides sample practice to achieve proficiency and mastery.
Category Description for Math Power Basics (Gr. 6-12)
A basic skills curriculum dedicated to total concept mastery and designed for students having difficulty with traditional courses. Lessons are self-instructional and fairly lengthy, roughly 10 student pages per lesson. Instruction is clear (written at a fourth grade reading level), doesn't assume prior knowledge, and explanations tend to be more procedural than conceptual. Student pages include instruction, drill, practice problems, and word problems. Activities develop problem-solving skills and usually involve "real" world applications, such as planning a party, comparison shopping, and balancing a budget.
Category Description for Power Basics: Geometry (2021 Edition)
Covers lines, angles, triangles, Pythagorean Theorem, perimeter, circumference, area, volume, and coordinate geometry. Station Activities require household items, connecting cubes, a ruler and a calculator.
Offering a fresh look and additional activities in the student text and corresponding teacher guides, the 2021 Power Basics Math continues to provide a user-friendly, basic skills curriculum dedicated to total mastery. Lessons are self-instructional and fairly lengthy, roughly 10 student pages per lesson. New to this edition is a collection of Station Activities aligned to a specific CCS to reinforce the concepts taught. While these are group activities, homeschool families should have no problem modifying them for one or two students. Instruction is clear (written at a fourth-grade reading level), doesn't assume prior knowledge, and explanations tend to be more procedural than conceptual. Student pages include instruction, drill, practice problem-solving skills and usually involve "real" world applications, such as planning a party, comparison shopping, and balancing budgets. Content follows NCTM standards. Previous edition test packs and workbook are compatible with the 2021 edition. If your student is struggling with traditional courses, Power Basics may be the answer you are seeking! ~Deanne
