Description


Life of Fred's Pre-Algebra O with Physics, previously titled Elementary Physics, remains the first book in the Life of Fred Pre-Algebra Getting Ready for High School Math Series. This book is designed for students who have completed the elementary, intermediate, and arithmetic series books, typically in middle school. While physics is usually taught in twelfth grade, this age-appropriate book offers a unique opportunity to explore physics concepts before diving into algebra.


Each of the forty chapters concludes with a Your Turn to Play segment, featuring a few thought-provoking questions. Answers are conveniently provided on the next page for self-assessment. The Bridge review questions appear after every six chapters, offering a way to transition between concepts and assess understanding. Parents can use these sections as evaluation tools, with a suggested minimum score of 90% before moving on. If students struggle, they have up to five attempts to solve the problems. The book wraps up with The Final Bridge, providing six additional tries. Answers to the Bridge questions are found in the back of the book.


Pre-Algebra O with Physics covers a range of topics, including numerals, making models, conversion factors, area of a rectangle, friction, constants of proportionality, speed of light, variables, the story of the meter, pendulums, square roots, graphing points, and more. This hardcover, non-consumable textbook features Smyth-sewn binding and spans 288 pages. Students write their answers on separate paper, although answers are also included in the text, directly accessible to the student.
