Becca
And no...We are having nothing to do with that school!!!!!And my mother teaches me a lot better than that stupid school! Srry I just hate that school.

Answer: If you have time to look for one, I prefer Saxon the best. You would want a 6/5 or 7/6. You can buy them on ebay fairly inexpensively.
If you need one right away, why not just go to your local Barnes and Nobel or other book store and buy a Math workbook? They sell Spectrum Math books and AEP Math workbooks for less than ten dollars. You will be able to find a lot of different Math workbooks for your grade level. Hayes makes some Middle School Math workbooks too that would work.
