Highlights of this book
- 21 tests, one for each chapter of the year
- Each test is scored out of 20 points and takes 45 minutes
- An answer key with a point-by-point scoring guide
Each chapter has its own test, ready to print: an information box gives the time, the Common Core codes and the points for every question, out of a total of 20. Questions move from direct application to a final problem that asks for more reasoning.
The answer keys are grouped at the end of the book, with a scoring guide that explains how many points to give for each part. It is the closest thing to a Algebra 1 test at school, at home.
Who is it for?
For a ninth grader, or any student taking Algebra 1, and for the parents, tutors and homeschooling families who work with them.

Questions from parents
How many tests are in the Algebra 1 tests book?
21 tests, one per chapter, each scored out of 20 points, on 141 pages.
How do I grade a test?
The answer key at the end of the book gives the worked solution and a scoring guide for each question.
Does it replace the school textbook?
It complements it: use it at home to review, practice or get ahead, whatever textbook the teacher uses.
Do I need the other two books of the grade?
No, each book works on its own. Together, the lessons, worksheets and tests of Algebra 1 cover the three steps: understand, practice, check.
