Please tell me about popular math textbooks in US I'm learning math English, and I want to see some textbooks which are used in US for native kids. Maybe it helps to learn math English for foreigners! Could you show me some titles of popular math textbooks which meet conditions below?? 1. For junior high school or high school students (I'm looking for both, but not math in uni) 2. Basic one and High-level one (I'm looking for both) 3. If the textbooks were used in many school or many states, it will be great! I checked Amazon.com, but there are too many choices... http://amzn.to/2aFIE5o Please give me some advice.

Unfortunately, there is not going to be just one book (or a set of books) because each state has a Board of Education, and they decide the curricula. Pretty much all of them will adhere to Common Core standards, but their methods of teaching will be different. In New York, we also have Board of Regents exams, and the most popular review books for these are the Barron's Review series. Here are some links that may be useful: Common Core Standards: http://www.corestandards.org/Math/ NY Regents Exams: http://www.nysedregents.org/regents_math.html

Hi! I'm an American who homeschooled her kids, so yes, I know some Math textbooks. Saxon Math seems to be the most popular text across the board. They publish math at all levels and are easy to get on Amazon. There are a lot of textbook publishers that produce math textbooks.... My eldest son is majoring in mathematics, so if you want a college level text, I know he has a really good one, but I'd have to ask him what it is. Hope that helps.

I'm an Australian, not an American, but I remember the "Maths in Focus" textbooks being popular when I was in highschool. I don't know if that helps since I'm assuming the Australian syllabus is quite different to the American one.

From what I've heard about Common Core math, you may want to be careful what you wish for.
