Saxon Algebra II
I've used Saxon textbooks for over 30 years and I was happy to find this website offering these books for such a great price. I will be purchasing my next Saxon textbooks from Rainbow Resource.

Saxon Algebra 2 Homeschool Kit (3rd Edition)
I just now opened our packet and noticed that there isn't the test answer key. I thought it stated that it came with the answer key to all homeschool tests. Why do I not have it?

Saxon Algebra 2
I absolutely love the way this book is designed. Lessons well laid out in small, easily understood pieces. Consistent practise of lessons throughout ensures techniques become well learned and established in your mind. Testing materials provided with a schedule. I was not familiar with "spiral learning" before but was following that technique and am convinced it is the best way to learn and build your knowledge.

answer book doesn't "show the work"
The books are great - we love Saxon. However, this answer book doesn't show how they got the correct answer - which we are definitely missing!! That feature was very helpful in the Algebra 1 and I wish we had it in this one as well.

I am not only teaching my children math I am studying math myself to prepare to add math as a second teaching field So I have looked at a lot of different math books Saxon does an excellent job of explaining mathematical concepts Their explanations are in English not mired in difficult mathematical terminologyNevertheless be sure to get the solution manual! You need the answer to every problem and sometimes you need to see how they got that answer The textbook is so thick because it has more explanations and illustrations than other texts I always wondered how to teach stated problems You explain the problem to the student and he understands it but still can't do the next stated problem Saxon teaches the student step by step how to solve various kinds of stated problems For example they teach you how to solve boat in the river problems and give helpful hints like telling you to put all the information in a box Each lesson for a while you have another boat in the river problem Then comes the lesson when they teach you how to solve harder boat in the river problems They also teach you how to solve abstract equations You end up with answers like RT=12 At the time you wonder what purpose this has but later you solve stated problems which put this knowledge to use Saxon thus leads you step by step to solve complex stated problems Some concepts such as ideal gas laws and chemical mixture problems are taught much better here than in our chemistry book In chemistry you also have to convert units and check your units to make sure you correctly solved the problem Saxon has been teaching unit conversion in previous books and continues here This book also covers force vectors and does a much better job than our physics book I think this course prepares you well for the types of problems you encounter on the SAT too My only complaint would be that there are not enough problems on the new topic that is introduced each lesson My answer to that is to work all the examples in the current lesson and to go ahead a few lessons to work similar problems in the next several lessons (Like all the boat in the river problems for the next 3 lessons) Saxon also teaches the wise use of the calculator not for every problem but for pi logarithms sine and cosine etc I think it is a great value and have personally not found anything objectionable in the book

We have used Saxon Math since 6th grade The girls have enjoyed it from the get-go! In the past 2 years we added the DIVE (Digital Interactive Video Education) to the grade kit and have benefited greatly from the whole Saxon Math Curriculum

Was encouraged to purchase new because used copies have too much writing
I already have some of these Alg II textbooks on hand but my class is larger this year. This is a great curriculum and I have had amazing success with this curriculum since 1992. My students typically…
