GED Matematicas (Steck-Vaughn) November 5, 2006 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book is good for preparing for the GED in Spanish because, like the other Steck-Vaughn GED books, it has short and concise lessons, relevant exercises, and detailed answers in the back. The practice tests are also very useful. What I and my students have trouble with is the Spanish translation and how this can cause miscommunication. This is present in all the Steck-Vaughn books. For example, the wording seems to be a direct translation from English so that an item which asks about pairs of pants sounds like it is asking about two items of clothing because the word "pair" in Spanish is not used in the same way. A "pair" in Spanish would be two. In math, this is an obvious difficulty. The dialect and word choice is also often not understood by my Mexican students here in California. In general, we deal with these issues as part of the larger issue of Spanish in the U.S. and appreciate the clearness of the lessons and the detailed answers.
