Children can begin to learn algebra as early as third grade using manipulatives, but without them even high school students may struggle. This book shows parents how to help their children understand algebra as a hands-on game, using chess pawns for unknowns and raisins for negative numbers. With step-by-step instructions and examples, the author shows how to solve simple equations and how to factor quadratic polynomials. The book also features a brief tour of math beyond algebra, including an introduction to integral and differential calculus.

Algebra is the doorway to science and the universal language of the technological world. -- Debra Bell, Home School Resource Center
From the Publisher
As homeschoolers, we noticed a gap in the market. There were plenty of books about creative ways to teach reading, writing, and history--but it seemed that textbook drudgery was the only way to teach math. So we were delighted to be able to publish Denise Gaskins' Homeschool Math Manual series. These books will be helpful to any parents, homeschooling or not, who want to improve their children's understanding of math.
