For the STAAR Algebra I test
Get ready for STAAR Algebra I, a little every day.
Flax covers every topic in Texas Algebra I, one skill at a time. Practice what your class is learning, and Flax brings each skill back on a schedule so it’s still there on test day. When an answer goes wrong, photograph your work and Flax finds the step that broke.
Free during beta. Built on the Algebra I TEKS.

STAAR prep that starts in August, not April.
Doing well on the Algebra I test comes down to knowing every topic on test day. Flax helps you learn each one when your class does, and keeps it from fading.
Keep up with class
Open any Algebra I skill the week your class gets to it. A short lesson, then questions that go from easy to challenge.
Keep what you learned
Each skill comes back the next day, a week later, and about a month later. If it starts slipping, you find out in the fall, not in April.
Fix what’s underneath
Got one wrong? Photograph your work. Flax finds the first step that broke, and if the same gap keeps showing up, gives you a short repair.
Test yourself every unit
All 11 units end with a test: 15 questions drawn from a pool of 60, so a retake is a fresh set.
All of Texas Algebra I, unit by unit.
