Dimensions Math 8B
About This Course
Ready for Dimensions Math® 8B?
If your child has been successful in Dimensions Math 8A, this is the perfect next step.
In Dimensions Math 8B the student continues to take ownership of their education. They can watch instruction videos, complete homework, and view solutions to any homework problems that they are struggling with all on their own. The solutions videos allow students to attempt more problems in less time because they don’t have to spend a long time being “stuck” on one problem! After attempting a problem for a reasonable amount of time, the student can access the solutions recording where Mrs. Barnett models the thinking skills and mathematical concepts required to solve each problem.
What Dimensions Math Includes:
- Words to Listen For: During each instruction video, students are asked to write down a specific word. At the end of each lesson parents can ask to see these words and compare them to the list of words that are provided to parents. This holds students accountable for listening well during instructional time.
- Parent Notes: Parent notes are provided for each unit. These notes include an overview of the unit, suggestions for what problems are necessary and which ones can be omitted, and information about when to use a calculator.
- Tests and Keys: High quality tests are provided for each unit, as well as keys so parents can know how their students are doing.

Good, but sometimes glitched
I am terrible at math so this has been super useful as I try to teach it to my kid. We generally work the lesson together so I can understand and answer any questions he might have along the way. I love that we can pause it, back it up, and restart it as needed. That being said, I wish the videos could be edited to take out mistakes as the teacher goes. I love that she normalizes making mistakes for students, but as we go through it, when she is getting a different answer I keep going back trying to understand what I missed. There have been a few times where I spent hours on a math lesson trying to understand the steps, only to realize I was not understanding it because the teacher had been working the problem out incorrectly.
good
The videos are great for intensive math and pushing me into math I didn't know was possible, as an 8th grader I've found that I have very high test scores in math because of this website. However, I find a lot of the times the videos are slow and boring. Although Mrs. Barnett is very helpful in explaining the process, I find that she moves a little slow pace for us fast learners. Of course if you struggle in math the slow pace is good, however most of the time I have to raise the speed level of the video in order to keep up. If you're a fast learner, I'd still recommend this, just turn the speed up a bit.
