Many students continue to struggle in high school math courses because they failed to master the basic mathematical skills. REA’s new Ready, Set, Go! Workbook series takes the confusion out of math, helping students raise their grades and score higher on important exams—including the Alabama AHSGE.
What makes REA’s workbooks different? For starters, students will actually like using them. Here’s why:
• Math is explained in simple language, in an easy-to-follow style
• The workbooks allow students to learn at their own pace and master the subject
• More than 20 lessons break down the material into the basics
• Each lesson is fully devoted to a key math concept and includes many step-by-step examples
• Paced instruction with drills and quizzes reinforces learning
• The innovative “Math Flash” feature offers helpful tips and strategies in each lesson—including advice on common mistakes to avoid
• Skill scorecard measures the student’s progress and success
• Every answer to every question, in every test, is explained in full detail
