Who it’s for

Written for future teachers preparing for the Praxis Elementary Education Mathematics CKT (subtest 7813), for teacher-preparation students building their content knowledge, for career changers returning to mathematics after years away, and for tutors who need ready-made lessons and worksheets with answer keys. Because every topic starts from the beginning, you can open the book at the chapter you need most.

How to use it

Work one chapter at a time: read the lesson, follow the examples with a pencil, complete the worksheets, then check them against the answer key. When an answer is wrong, find the step where it went off track rather than starting over. When the chapters are done, sit each practice test in one timed session and read the explanation for every question you missed.
