REVIEW PANEL ADVISORY RECOMMENDATION

2014 MATHEMATICS PRIMARY ADOPTION OF INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS

|Publisher |Series |Grade Level(s) |

|Perfection Learning |Kinetic Pre-Algebra |8 |

Program Summary:

The Mathematics program Kinetic Pre-Algebra is composed of, but not limited to, the following items: Kinetic Pre-Algebra Interactive Student Edition (SE) and Teacher Edition with Online Assignment Access and Course Manager (TE).

Recommendation:

Kinetic Pre-Algebra is recommended for adoption because it is aligned with the California Common Core State Standards for Mathematics and meets the rest of the evaluation criteria approved by the State Board of Education for this adoption.
