AMSCO® Math

Grades 9–12

A comprehensive high school math series for all learners

Short, focused lessons feature extensive step-by-step model problems, clearly identified mathematical practices, instructional videos, interactive activities, and ample practice to develop mathematical fluency and problem-solving skills.

Individualize problem sets with i-Practice, which assigns problems to each student based on his or her instructional need. Smart Feedback and point-of-use video instruction provides additional instructional support to maximize student success. Online assignments, mixed and cumulative reviews, and a wealth of chapter and summative tests provide the performance data and reporting you need. Assessments also include the latest technology-enhanced items (TEIs).
