[quote=Anonymous]Have you talked to the teacher about this at all? What does your daughter say? It's still the beginning of the year and she has lots of time to pull the grade up. I also don't know her learning style and whether these would help as supplemental material. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Khan Academy videos, which are free, and help explain conceptual issues in a very straightforward way. http://www.khanacademy.org/math/algebra I was not naturally bright at math, and I found that my success or failure was much more indicative of the teacher's style or ability to explain the material. Because I studied like a mad person. I was never a slacker. Yet I got straight As one year and struggled with Cs and Ds the next. Supplementation with things like the Khan Academy videos help me a lot. I'm relearning this stuff myself so I can understand what my 16 year old daughter is doing.[/quote]
