Prentice Hall's official site for all of their textbooks. The section for Connected Math 2 is still under construction because the new version of the program is just in publication this spring. Visitors to the site can access the practice quizzes for any of the Prentice Hall publications. The levels appropriate for students enrolled in CMP Grade 8 include Grade 6-8 Texts, Pre-Algebra, and Algebra 1 (early chapters). Just click on “Text Resources” and then on “Mathematics” to access textbooks.
