When my oldest son was not getting some concepts (negative numbers and fractions) the explanations on this site helped him grasp the concepts more concretely. It is obviously not a curriculum but a supplement. I really like the real life applications they use to explain stuff.

It is poverty for a child to die so that we may live as we wish.

Also, you might want to consider Khan Academy vids. These have been lifesavers for my son. [LINK] - Mx5 - 10:46:43 AM on 04/20/2012

I've got it in my bookmarks and I might end up using it when he gets to Algebra. :) [NT] - juditupp - 12:44:40 PM on 04/21/2012

But "os" is a typo, lol! I could not correct it on my tablet. It should be IS. [NT] - Angie in VA - 11:43:57 AM on 04/18/2012

I would have "him" call Ruth and Systematic math - Des - 12:47:30 PM on 04/17/2012

Just finished the MUS Pre-Alg. comp. test...He failed:( - Greta Lea:) - 1:36:30 PM on 04/17/2012

Greta, did he do Math Rescue from systematic math? [NT] - Des - 2:16:58 PM on 04/17/2012

No, because he had already done SO much review with Key To (fractions, decimals and percent books) and ALEKS math online. [NT] - Greta Lea:) - 2:22:05 PM on 04/17/2012

How did he do with the other modules? Does he show his work? [NT] - Des - 2:59:12 PM on 04/17/2012

He does show his work, but on these last few modules he has not even know where/how to even BEGIN... - Greta Lea:) - 4:16:27 PM on 04/17/2012

What lesson is he on, maybe between Sherry and I we can help - Des - 4:23:40 PM on 04/17/2012

LOL, but Sherry CAN'T help!!! - Sherry (Bowlsby) - 5:15:25 PM on 04/17/2012
