The Ultimate Guide to Perfect Score in Middle School Math: Concepts Matter
Description
Book Introduction
In the era of liberal arts and science integration, the top grade in high school mathematics is ultimately determined by middle school mathematics!
This book is a revised edition of 『Complete Middle School Math with 7 Concepts』 and 『7 Conceptual Math for Middle School Students』.
Elementary mathematics focuses on numerical operations, middle school mathematics focuses on formulas, and high school mathematics is a variety of extensions of the formulas learned in middle school.
If you look at it broadly, the final goal of elementary and middle school mathematics is the first year of high school, as the formulas learned in elementary and middle school are expanded in the first year of high school.
The seven concepts of middle school mathematics covered here are as follows:
① Arithmetic symbols, ② Parentheses, ③ Properties of fractions, ④ Properties of equality, ⑤ Properties of inequality, ⑥ Absolute value, ⑦ Exponentiation
These seven concepts will help you understand how problems are created and predict how problems will be created in the future.
And there are parts that are not covered in middle school but suddenly appear in high school, leaving students confused. All concepts, including these, and how they expand are explained in an easy and fun way.
Advanced mathematics, which integrates liberal arts and science, has become a necessity rather than an option.
If you build a solid foundation in elementary school mathematics and expand your concepts in middle school mathematics, you will definitely be able to master high school mathematics.

Into the book
If your math grades are at the bottom, you probably think you have to do whatever it takes to improve your grades.
I agree to some extent, but it is increasingly difficult to maintain that kind of study method in the long run, and it is impossible to do anything about it in the face of mathematics.
--- p.22
I created the equation (concept) + (part) = (summary).
When studying mathematics, you must first study the concepts.
Of course, just learning the concepts doesn't mean you'll be good at math right away.
Even after learning the concepts, you still need to solve problems that fall into each section.
--- p.39
The textbook defines an equation as 'an equation that is either true or false depending on the value of x.'
However, to understand this definition, you often have to spend a long time solving equations and learning functions to finally understand its meaning.
So when I teach students, I first have them memorize equations as 'equations with unknown variables'.
--- p.54
A sense of numbers isn't something that's built overnight.
Middle school is not a time to learn numerical operations, but rather a time to focus on handling and understanding formulas, so no workbook provides enough problems.
Therefore, you should memorize the powers of simple numbers such as 2, 3, 5, etc. to some extent, even if it means writing them down separately at the top of your desk.
--- p.66
Now that we've learned about inequalities, it's time to learn the four basic operations on inequalities.
Although the four basic operations of inequalities are not covered in the curriculum, they are sometimes included in problems, which confuses students.
So, some teachers at schools or academies teach this, but students often memorize it as if it were a formula and get stuck trying to solve it.
This is because there are many formulas used in the calculation of inequalities, and some are mixed or unlearned.

Publisher's Review
[Author's Note]
“Many students self-diagnose that they have weak mathematical skills.
The likelihood of poor math grades due to poor application skills is not that great, at least until high school.
Because high school mathematics is not a course that elicits mathematical thinking, it does not place value on things like applied skills or creativity in mathematics.”
A story about middle school math concepts for advanced math!
This book is about middle school math concepts written by Jo An-ho, a math study method expert.
If 50% of middle school students who failed to grasp their place in elementary school collapse during their third year of middle school, then 70-80% of students who advance to high school collapse during their first year of high school.
Not only average students, but more than 70% of middle school honor students also fall apart in their first year of high school, so you should not be complacent just because your school grades are stable.
To truly develop skills, students need to develop an eye for the concepts and formulas required for math in the first year of high school, when they begin to crumble.
Let's meet Mr. Jo An-ho, who calls himself a math interpreter, and talk about middle school math concepts that will lead you to a perfect score.
