Circuit Training -- Algebra Mega Bundle!

Finally! So many of you have requested and now --- all of my algebra circuits in one convenient download. This bundle contains predominantly Algebra I (since that is what I teach), but a good amount of pre-algebra and Algebra II and Advanced Algebra as well. A huge thanks goes to Erica Arrington who helped me select, compile and merge all of the PDFs.

With this one download you will have 92 circuits and 7 matching activities, which is why I am setting the price at a 92+7 = $99. This is a huge savings since many of these circuits go for $2 - $4.

We have checked our work carefully but if you find any errors, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. virge@virgecornelius.com
