Extra Help and Resources

Students and Parents,

This course will help you master the math concepts and methods established by the Anne Arundel County Board of Education Mathematics Department.

This textbook is not a substitute for good teaching but can be used for review and study.

It is very important that your son/daughter participate in class in order to gain the most from his/her education and from what the classroom teacher has to offer.

On these web pages you will find many engaging tools to help you succeed: electronic tutors, review games, test practice and more.
