In early June we were given the opportunity to review Math Essentials No-Nonsense Algebra. Mastering Algebra should not be stressful, No-Nonsense Algebra takes the stress out of it!
No-Nonsense Algebra is written to the student with short, concise, self-contained lessons that are easy to understand and eliminates distractions. Review is also built into each lesson to ensure mastery of topics and full examples are given with step-by-step solutions. Chapter tests and a final exam allow you to measure student progress.
No-Nonsense Algebra was written by Richard W. Fisher, who says that Algebra does not have to be a long, drawn out boring subject. Each of the lessons presented is very short and sweet and gets right to the point. A feature that I really enjoy is that there is a video that corresponds to every lesson. It’s like having your own personal tutor for the $27.95 you pay for the book! The code to access the video’s online is self contained in the book.

I was able to use this book with Marie. She has had a great year with Algebra 1 but I wanted to touch a bit more on Quadratic Equations. So that is where we started in the book. She had great success and I would definitely recommend Alegbra program.
We also had the opportunity to review Mastering Essential Math Skills: Geometry. Marie does not begin her formal study of Geometry until August but looking at this book I know it will be a valuable resource to use. It contains 29 review exercises (no video instruction is included), along with a Final Test. Vocabulary, points, lines, planes, perimeter, area, volume, and the Pythagorean theorem are just some of the topics that are covered. Geometry was not my strong point in my math studies so I am glad we will have a handy resource to turn to if we get stuck. Mastering Essential Math Skills: Geometry retails for just $11.95 a great price for what you get!
