We bring the lessons to you.
The Math Institute is so excited to bring you step-by-step Video Lessons for each chapter in Teaching Algebra to the Adolescent: A Montessori Approach - Volume One.
From the physical to the abstract, these videos will help prepare you to get your students started working towards internalizing the rules by grounding the ideas in the materials. Algebra may seem like a big step for students, but with these insights and methodology, they will see connections to what they have learned before, how to apply it to new situations, and why the techniques work.

He also completed the NAMTA Orientation to Adolescent Studies in 2005. Under his guidance, the Math Institute published four of his math books. He authored five comprehensive review sets, as a recursive daily student work, consisting of over 8,000 unique problems.
