Basic Math teaches arithmetic and prepares students for Algebra I and beyond.
The lessons cover the arithmetic of whole numbers, fractions, decimals, percents, integers, exponents, square roots, and order of operations.
Lessons on geometry, measurement, problem solving, probability, statistics, and pattern recognition prepare students for future mathematical studies.
Dr. Siegel, named by Kentucky Educational Television as "the best math teacher in America," describes this course:
"The topics, sequences, and examples used in this series are based on 23 years' experience teaching mathematics to real students. If you do what is asked of you in the 30 lessons, you will greatly improve your understanding of basic mathematics. You will gain confidence in your ability to understand new mathematical topics."
