By now she should have next years Textbook for Mathematics.

She should start and read the lessons over and over again.
Making notes as she goes through.

She should then attempt ALL the exercises NOT just a few.

These sites are always trying to sell something.
I do not mean that ALINA needs to study each and every one in depth.
The one you seem to favour has got a lot of demonstrations.
The static demonstrations are very helpful.

She should try and get to do some problems on her own.
Tell her to use plenty of PAPER.
She need to become confident to use the ALGEBRA !!

PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT !!
A lot of examples, not one or two, fifty to sixty is more like it.

It really becomes a lot of FUN when you get to like the exercises.

regards.

Many txs, my dear Rolcam,
will check her 8th grade math book as there'll be available at school bookshop next week.
Meanwhile, I will supervise what's next in list.

ROLCAM · Posted: Tue Jul 31, 2007 5:38 pm Post subject: 7 TH GRADE MAHEMATICS TEXTBOOK.

Alina still has the7th Grade Mathematics Textbook.

Tell her that she still needs to look at it OFTEN !!

She should go back to it and revise the texts.
Make herself very confident as to what happened in the past.

The future will be built on it.

Get her to attempt all the exercises again !!

All the very best.
