Students like Saxon because they feel successful in math instead of overwhelmed.
The most popular homeschooling math program hands down! Highly recommended by both Mary Pride and Cathy Duffy, Saxon Math also wins our award for the "Most Requested Text." Saxon math is a "user-friendly" math program - even for Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus and other usually difficult math topics. Learning is incremental and each new concept is continuously reviewed, so the learning has time to "sink in" instead of being forgotten when the next topic is presented. Higher scores on standardized tests and increased enrollments in upper-level math and science classes have resulted where Saxon has been used in public schools. Students like Saxon because they feel successful in math instead of overwhelmed. Because of the format, children are able to work more independently.
Saxon Math is a user-friendly math program that takes an incremental approach – teaching a new mathematical concept every day while constantly reviewing previously covered concepts in “mixed practice” problem sets. The learning has time to sink in instead of being forgotten when the next topic is presented. Children can work more independently beginning with 4th grade– there are no manipulatives or teacher editions; information is directed to the student within the student text. Lesson Reference Numbers are placed by each mixed practice problem in the student text so students can easily refer to the lesson(s) where they first learned the concept. A solution manual takes you step-by-step from the initial problem to the solution, which is a big help, especially in the higher levels.
