Pre-Algebra & Algebra 1 is the first real taste of high school-level math (even when it's taken in middle school), and for many kids it's like, uh-oh, we're not in Kansas anymore But help is here from the Big Fat Notebooks, the series that has single-handedly changed the study guide landscape for middle and high school kids.

In the invaluable Big Fat Notebook way--where critical ideas are broken down and clearly explained, diagrams and doodles illuminate key concepts, mnemonics provide valuable shortcuts, and strategic quizzes give the material another way to sink in--Pre-Algebra & Algebra 1 covers it all: from the number system to solving and graphing quadratic equations. Math is the bestselling Big Fat Notebook with more than 1.6 million copies in print; Pre-Algebra & Algebra 1 is the natural next book. It reinforces the pre-algebra concepts presented in Math and goes on to cover critical level 1 algebra subject matter. Pre-Algebra & Algebra 1 is a subject that precocious eighth graders take before entering high school; this book can help those students on their accelerated track.
