Disappointment for a parent: No Answer Key Included,
By academydr (Shaker Heights, Ohio United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Study Guide and Practice Workbook - Prentice Hall Mathematics: Algebra 1 (Paperback)
Perhaps it was an unrealistic expectation to think that a workbook would include the solutions. I have yet to find a solution key for this series. Had I known that the book did not include the solutions, I would not have purchased it. Lack of an answer key greatly reduces the utility of the workbook for at home practice, unless the parent completely recalls Algebra 1.
Also, this workbook does not exactly track the Ohio Edition of the text. Chapter 4 is different. I have not compared it to the reminder of the book. Furthermore, the description lead me to believe that there would be a variety of worked out problems for each lesson. The worked out examples are instead pretty sparse. Overall, the workbook appears to be geared more for supplementary work from a teacher than for a parent working with a child at home. Otherwise, the workbook does provide additional problems in a similar format to that of the book. It does provide additional sheets of targeted practice for most lessons in the textbook.

Goes with the Text Book,
By Engineer (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Study Guide and Practice Workbook - Prentice Hall Mathematics: Algebra 1 (Paperback)
Really nice quality workbook - both physically, and content. Not very much money. Nothing fancy, black and white, just has lots of extra problems, and you can't really work them out in the workbook since there isn't enough space. I don't think you really need the workbook, since the textbook has plenty of problems as it is. I suppose someone out there is doing problems 1 through 54 in the book for exercise 1-6, and then another 100 or so for good measure in the workbook. But, it isn't my kid.

Excellent material for home schooling,

This review is from: Study Guide and Practice Workbook - Prentice Hall Mathematics: Algebra 1 (Paperback)
I like this book's no-nonsense approach. For each subject, a half-page explanation is followed by 1 1/2 pages of exercises. The coverage is comprehensive and the print is reasonably small to pack dense information. There is no solution in the back, so the kid can be left to work on the problems by himself without the temptation of peeking at the answers.
Of course, parental guidance is vital at the beginning of each lesson and necessary whenever the student gets stuck on a problem. This book is too spartan for self-teaching.
