Rob and I use older textbooks all the time to teach Co-op classes. (We bought used books whenever possible when we home-schooled Lacie and Paul, too.) The main reason for using older textbooks is that they are cheaper. In Algebra I we’re using the Glencoe series. (BTW there are newer editions nearly as cheap.). I wanted a math textbook with graphing calculator exercises and support materials, such as these resource masters. Why not Saxon Math? Saxon Math was fine for Paul. However, Lacie struggled for over a year with Saxon until I switched textbooks. Glencoe is widely used in the U.S. I think the material works well for most students.
