About This Book

Saxon math programs produce confident students who are not only able to correctly compute, but also to apply concepts to new situations. These materials gently develop concepts, and the practice of those concepts is extended over a considerable period of time. This is called "incremental development and continual review." Material is introduced in easily understandable pieces (increments), allowing students to grasp one facet of a concept before the next one is introduced. Both facets are then p

Our Review

This foundational math curriculum for first graders builds mathematical confidence through its distinctive incremental approach, introducing new concepts in small, manageable pieces while consistently reviewing previously learned material. The homeschool kit provides a full year's worth of daily lessons that gently develop number sense, basic operations, and early problem-solving skills through structured practice. Young learners encounter mathematical ideas in easily understandable increments, allowing them to master one facet before moving to the next, creating a solid foundation in early mathematics education.

What sets this program apart is its thoughtful spiral methodology where concepts reappear throughout the year, ensuring children truly internalize mathematical thinking rather than just memorizing procedures. The systematic repetition and continual review make it particularly valuable for students who benefit from consistent reinforcement and parents seeking a structured homeschool math curriculum. Children emerge from this program not just as calculators but as mathematical thinkers who can apply concepts to new situations, carrying this confidence forward in their educational journey.
