Over a period of time, I have developed a set of in-class assignments, homeworks, and lesson plans, that work for me and for other people who have tried them. The complete set comprises three separate books that work together:

• The Homework and Activities Book contains in-class and homework assignments that are given to the students day-by-day.
• The Concepts Book provides conceptual explanations, and is intended as a reference or review guide for students; it is not used when teaching the class.
• The Teacher's Guide provides lesson plans; it is your guide to how I envisioned these materials being used when I created them (and how I use them myself).

Instructors should note that this book probably contains more information than you will be able to cover in a single school year. I myself do not teach from every chapter in my own classes, but have chosen to include these additional materials to assist you in meeting your own needs. As you will likely need to cut some sections from the book, I strongly recommend that you spend time early on to determine which modules are most important for your state requirements and personal teaching style.
