Basic Math Skills Rescue, Part 2: The Critical Foundations of Algebra Paperback

In recent months, millions of students have fallen behind in math. Many have struggled to the point of completely giving up. This has reached a crisis stage.

Intel Innovations in Teaching Award-winning math teacher Richard W. Fisher has created an amazing algebra-readiness program to completely turn this around. With 31 years of experience in the classroom, he knows what it takes to ensure student success in math.

The exciting news is that this new math program, Basic Math Skills Rescue, Parts One & Two, is now available to all students.

There are three clusters of essential math skills that all students need to learn and master. These are the foundational skills that will gradually lead children to algebra. Students need to have a strong understanding of these topics. These skills are aptly called the Critical Foundations of Algebra.

• Students need to fully understand these skills conceptually.
• They need to be able to compute accurately with them.
• They need to be able to apply them to problem-solving.
• Automatic recall of number facts is also vitally important.
• The concepts, computation, problem-solving, and recall of facts are mutually supportive of one another.

The Critical Foundations of Algebra

With a strong background in these areas, students will be prepared for success in algebra and beyond.

The importance of a student’s success in algebra cannot be over-emphasized. Algebra is the gateway subject that will equip students to take more advanced math, science, and technical classes. Success in algebra opens many doors to higher education and a rewarding career; lack of success in algebra will sadly result in these doors staying closed.

Basic Math Skills Rescue, Parts 1 and 2 will ensure mastery of these Critical Skills of Algebra.
