Homeschool Kit Contents

Saxon's primary mathematics programs have been carefully planned and packaged. Each homeschool kit comes with all necessary materials required for one-on-one instruction. ** The Math 1 homeschool kit contains the following:

Teacher's Manual. The heart of each K-3 program is the teacher's manual, which employs a unique instructional format. It contains daily lessons, each of which includes pre-class preparation instructions, a list of materials, and the entire scripted lesson. Scripted lessons provide the parent with questioning strategies and language designed to help children understand mathematical concepts. Since the teacher's manual is nonconsumable, it can be used in successive years with the purchase of new student workbooks and meeting books.

Student Workbooks. A complete set of all necessary student materials is bound in two consumable workbooks. Student materials include written practice pages, masters, and fact cards.

Meeting Book. Each grade level has its own consumable meeting book, which is used during The Meeting at the beginning of each day.

** Manipulatives are an additional purchase.

Lesson Components

Each lesson includes a daily meeting, a new increment of instruction, guided practice of new and previously introduced concepts, and number fact practice. Written and oral assessments are built into the program and are given at regular intervals.

The Meeting. The daily meeting is an opening exercise in which children practice skills related to time, temperature, money, counting, patterning, and problem solving.

Number Fact Practice. Children are presented with strategies to help learn number facts. They are encouraged to recall facts through the use of pattern recognition. Facts are practiced orally, and students test their skills in timed drills (fact practice sheets), competing against past performances.

Written Practice. Children complete the first part of the written practice with parent assistance. The remaining half, which mirrors work completed in class, is done later in the day. The time delay between practice sessions improves retention.

Written and Oral Assessments. Each assessment questions children on skills they have practiced for at least five lessons. In Math 1, a written assessment is given every five lessons, an oral assessment every ten lessons.

Includes kindergarten review, skip counting by 1s, 2s, 5s and 10s, sequencing, patterns, basic addition and subtraction; two-digit addition without regrouping, etc. Kit includes teacher's manual, student workbooks and meeting book and math facts cards (flash cards).

Workbooks and meeting book are consumable.

The decision to homeschool our daughter, Alexa, was an easy one. Choosing a curriculum that worked well with her goals and schedule was a little more difficult.
