COURSES

Welcome to the Algebra2go® prealgebra resources page. Whether you are attending Saddleback College's prealgebra class (math 351), taking a prealgebra class at another school, or need to refresh your math skills for a business or science class, Professor Perez and his favorite student Charlie have the tools that can help you. We have five primary types of study materials: class notes, video worksheets, video lectures, practice problems, and practice quizzes. For some topics we have some additional tools to assist you. Whichever materials you decide to use, we would appreciate your feedback.

Class Notes

Charlie isn't the best note-taker, but fortunately for him (and for us), his fellow students are. They have loaned their comprehensive notes on every lecture to Charlie and you can see them here. Another of Charlie's fellow student has translated many of the notes into Spanish.

Video Worksheets

Every video is accompanied by a worksheet that mirrors the presentation so that you can work along with Charlie during the video. This kind of active learning process is a particularly good way to increase retention.

Video Lectures

Perhaps our most popular tools are the video lectures. Attend Professor Perez's virtual classroom alongside his favorite student, Charlie. Each lecture focuses on a particular skill set which is vital for success.

Homework Sets

Professor Perez has put together a collection of homework problems for each video. Most assignments have solutions attached.

Topic Quizzes

Each video is accompanied by a set of three online practice quizzes so you can determine when you are ready to move on to the next topic. Just fill in the blanks with the correct answers to each question. When you finish, Charlie will let you know how you did.

Templates

Occasionally you will see the above symbol next to a topic. The symbol is a link to a template, a resource like blank graph paper or blank number lines. These can be printed and used for practicing problems.

Web Tools

The above symbol indicates that there is a web tool, an interactive web page, which can be used to explore the topic at hand. An example is an interactive number line for practicing integer addition. Just click on the symbol to open the web tool in a new page.
