BIG IDEAS MATH Algebra 1: Teacher Edition 2013;

The Big Ideas Math Algebra 1 book is the newest book in the Big Ideas Math series. The program uses the same research based strategy of a balanced approach to instruction that made the Big Ideas Math series so successful. This approach opens the doors to abstract thought, reasoning, and inquiry as students persevere to answer the Essential Questions that drive instruction. The foundation of the program is the Common Core Standards for Mathematics Content and Standards for Mathematical Practice. This series exposes students to highly motivating and relevant problems that offer the depth and rigor needed to prepare them for Calculus and other college-level courses that they will study during their senior year of high school. The Big Ideas Math Algebra 1 book, along with the red Accelerated book, completes the compacted pathway for middle school students.
