Building directly on Math K, Math 1 establishes a solid understanding of basic math concepts, such as comparing and ordering numbers, mastering all basic addition facts and most basic subtraction facts, adding two-digit numbers without regrouping, naming fractions, and measuring with inches, feet, and centimeters. Your child will also learn to create, read, and write observations from real graphics, pictographs, and bar graphs.
Covers skip counting; ordinal positions; sorting rules and patterns; solving problems; mastering basic addition and most basic subtraction facts; adding 2-digit numbers without regrouping; measuring; comparing volume, mass and area; counting money; telling time to half-hour; identifying polygons; graphing. 130 lessons.
The Teacher’s Manual contains the actual lesson plans and information vital to the effective presentation of math concepts. The consumable Meeting Books are used during the teacher-student “meeting”
in which concepts are introduced, demonstrated, and practiced. Student
Workbooks are used in Grades 1-3 and contain student materials, flash
cards and practice pages.

There are 130 lessons in the course and they are in 2 fairly equal semesters.
Sara CI believe it is a first edition. The copyright date is 2001.
JaniceThe teacher instructions on Saxon are thorough and easy to follow Horizon is not as thorough, Saxon independent student work is not enough Horizon’s Independent student work is three times as much.
elizabeth rThe oral assessment recording forms are located in the Student workbook part 1. There is a letter to the teacher, Homework recording form, assessment recording form, and then follows the oral assessment recording forms.
Tiphany MIt varies by lesson, but my best estimate would be 45 minutes. That will depend on how much of the intro "meeting" work you do each day. For most (not all) of the "meeting" items each day, the lesson, the timed math fact sheet, and the double sided worksheet I’d estimate 45 uninterrupted minutes. Though, obviously, it’s rarely uninterrupted!
Erin BThe is the first edition of Saxon Math 1. The copyright is 2001.
JaniceThe K-3 Saxon Math Homeschool Editions have copyrights in the early 90s which was long before Common Core. They have not been updated to align. There are some editions (most notably the Math Intermediate Series and the Courses 1, 2, & 3) that are topically aligned to CCSS. Even these later, CCSS aligned editions do not depart from the solid Saxon methodology and the excellent math instruction.
JaniceI have used Saxon K through Saxon 2. Manipulatives are used more heavily in Saxon K, understandably, than the other grades. However, those we continue to use in Saxon 1 are linking cubes (set of 100-in 10 colors), pattern blocks (we have the Melissa and Doug Pattern Block Kit with the magnetic wipe board), a simple analog clock that the child can easily set, and a geoboard with rubber bands (we have a double-sided board with a square pattern on one side and an equilateral triangle pattern on the other side).
Kibsa Lthey are throughout the kids workbook, in the teachers manual it informs you on that lesson and you will find it for that lesson.
Lindsey SIt will depend on the standards/curriculum you are comparing it to. Saxon in the primary grades is slower paced than many programs found currently in the public schools or that we carry.
Janice
Saxon is a reliable program for homeschoolers.
Saxon is super consistent, gentle, cyclical, predictable, and provides a very solid Mathematics foundation for children in the elementary years as they prepare for upper level (5th-12th grade levels of Math).
Required by school
I have looked extensively into different first grade math curriculum to help my struggling 1st grade daughters and I have fallen in love with the process of saxon. I am eager to start it in our home
