Math-U-See is a complete, skill-based, student-paced multi-sensory mastery curriculum for grades K-12.

This Algebra 1 Universal Set includes everything you need for the Algebra 1 level, including the Instruction Manual, Instruction DVD, Student Workbook, Tests Booklet, Integer Block Kit, Algebra/Decimal Inserts, and lifetime access to the Algebra 1 Digital Pack. The Algebra 1 level covers graphing, simultaneous equations, exponents, polynomials, unit multipliers, commutative and associative properties, solving for an Unknown with One Variable, the distributive property, Cartesian Coordinates, the slope-intercept formula, and more.

The Integer Block Kit includes 133 pieces, and is the only one you'll need for all levels of Math-U-See, from Primer through Algebra 1; it includes 20 ones and tens, 13 fives, and 10 each of twos, threes, fours, sixes, sevens, eights, nines, and hundreds blocks, plus the Decimal Street/Block Clock poster.

The Algebra/Decimal Inserts feature smooth pieces which snap into 10s and 100s blocks. This kit consists of four red 5" squares, two green 5" squares, 12 each of blue and gray .5" by 5" flat strips, and 20 .5" red cubes.

The Instruction Manual features 30 lessons with detailed instructions that include illustrations of manipulatives and other visual modeling strategies. The back of the book contains line-listed answers to the student workbook and tests.

The Instructional DVD features Steve Demme teaching a classroom each lesson. Each video lesson will help teachers understand the concepts being taught, as well as how to demonstrate it (as applicable); students can also watch with the teacher if deemed helpful.

The Student Workbook contains a number of worksheets for each lesson along with systematic review pages. "Honors Lesson" pages are designed to round out students' understanding of the main concepts. They are not designed to meet the requirements of a high school honors-level course and the designation "Honors" cannot be added to the course description even if all Honors pages are completed.

The Tests Booklet provides opportunities for assessment with a test for each chapter, unit tests that cover multiple chapters, and a final test. Test answers are in the Instruction Manual.

The Algebra Digital Pack includes an Instruction Manual PDF, lesson and test solutions, streaming instruction videos, access to the Math-U-See Digital Manipulatives, and other online resources.
