Paradigm Math Skills Curriculum
I call seventh and eighth grade math the "Math Nebuland." Students in those grades have a wide variety of math abilities. Some are ready for algebra yesterday, and others won't be ready until much later. Chemical changes in the brain which account for the ability to distinguish between concrete thinking and abstract thinking can take place at different ages in different children.
What homeschool math curriculum do you choose for the late bloomers? They are intelligent, but are they ready to start algebra and geometry? Paradigm's Basic and Intermediate Math Skills series meets the needs of the late bloomer. It also offers "excellent remedial studies for high school level students who need a refresher course prior to algebra."
