DragginMath Documents

DragginMath is your Draggin-powered launch pad into algebra. This app makes it easier to get into the proper mathematical orbit. You can get it now on the App Store.

Most of these documents are in DragginMath under the primary info button in the upper left corner of the screen. But you may find it easier to read them here or print them out, then follow along on your iPad/iPhone. And be sure to look at our Math page for more helpful resources.
