I really liked this book until today. I used 25 different pictures for 25 students in my class and over 1/2 of them had mistakes! Not computational mistakes from the students, but mistakes in the way numbers were printed, for example, some numbers listed as positive that should have been negative, etc. It really messed the students up as they were trying to create their pictures!
I have used this product for the last 9 years in 8th grade math/Algebra 1. It is my most valuable teaching possession. I even purchased a back-up copy just in case. The work is engaging. It is especially helpful during state testing time as review, because students want to get the correct answers to the expressions/equations so their pictures turn our correctly. I do not know what the negative reviewer is talking about. I have only ever found one error. It is on page 18 at the top where it says, "3A= 8", and it should say, "3A= 18". There is an extra space where there should be a 1. This is a fabulous teaching tool, and I have never found its equal.
I was happy to see the practice problems using very simple equations to find individual coordinates for the graph drawings. Extension questions to apply such concepts as vertical and horizontal symmetry. I had thought I might get some fraction or mixed number coordinates but as far as I can see all coordinates are integers. I will still be able to use many of the graphs as sponge activites for my high school geometry students.
This is an excellent graphing resource - not only do students work out various types of math problems, but they also sub in for coordinate points which they then graph. Excellent!
