Yes. Students can use Beacon to practice at their own pace and receive guidance whenever they need help moving forward. They can ask questions about pre-algebra concepts as they arise without having to wait until their next class or study session.
Students can use Beacon to review foundational skills such as working with integers, ratios, proportions, expressions, variables, and basic equations. They can spend additional time on difficult concepts and move forward when they feel ready.
During practice, Beacon encourages students to identify important information, choose an appropriate strategy, and complete each step carefully. When they become stuck, it provides helpful questions and explanations without taking control of the problem.
Regular independent practice can help students address learning gaps and become more comfortable with foundational algebraic thinking. Over time, they can build the skills, persistence, and confidence needed to succeed in algebra 1.
