Powers, Exponents, and Roots in Algebra, Teacher’s Edition: Book 7 of Doodles Do Algebra(tm) (Doodles Do Algebra Teacher’s Guides)

How Much of Algebra is Covered in This Book? This, the final book in the Doodles Do Algebra(tm) series is focused on learning to work with algebraic powers, roots, and exponents. The work assumes that your child understands all the topics and techniques in the first six books in the series. What is in This Book? This book includes the teacher’s notes, answer key, and a copy of the student work pages. Unlike most curricula for homeschooling that seems to include teacher’s notes as an afterthought, this series is focused heavily on notes to the teacher. We provide alternatives for teaching each lesson so that you can adjust the material to fit your child. No matter how your child learns and understands math best, we have a suggestion. One workbook is required for each student and is purchasable separately. Algebra Can Be Easy for Anyone to Teach Any Child Each book in the series is available as both a teacher’s guide and a student workbook for use in a tutoring group, small class, or homeschool. No additional texts are needed. Parents with any educational background will be equipped to teach the subject using the teacher’s guide as a resource. Designed for Gifted, 2e, Special Education, and Everything Between Different ways of thinking about and explaining each lesson are included in the teacher’s guide to accommodate children who are gifted, or dyslexic, or prefer nearly any learning style. Flexible and Friendly Individual worksheets work as a stand-alone curriculum, or as reinforcement and supplemental practice. This book is the result of years of teaching children, teens, and adults. Students will learn why algebra works, not just how to use it.

This algebra series was written for use with her own children after trying many different math curricula that did not work well long term. Since the curriculum was completed, hundreds of families have successfully used these lessons to teach algebra to their children at home.
