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.

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”

Fun and Challenging
I am very happy with Saxon Math for my first grader. I pulled him out of public school because he was doing MINIMAL learning in such LONG hours and he was bored to death. With Saxon, he is being challenged and he REALLY enjoys using the manipulatives and doing the daily lessons. I couldn't be happier!!

Great program...
I love how Saxon Math teaches basic math skills without all the confusing strategies offered in some programs. The spiraled review is great, too. It helps kids internalize what they have learned.

Our favorite math program!
Great package. Easy to use. Weve tried a lot of math programs in this family and Saxon is the only one that has some repetition to help them retain the math. With all of the others a topic would need to be completely retaught when we circled back the following year.

The Incremental spiral is so helpful for helping my right brain learners (dyslexic) retain information. The meeting can be tedious but is so important! Skip counting made a world of difference for multiplication and division.

Straightforward, comprehensive, and FUN!
This product revolutionized my homeschool in the absolute best way! I love Saxon and so does my student! It is SO EASY for the parent to use and it is comprehensive. Gone are my worries that we might miss something or fall behind. There are no tricks or gimmicks with this product; it is very straightforward. It has been great to see my students progress and enthusiasm (we both live math time now!) since we have been using this product. I recommend it to everyone I know!

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).

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

What edition is this kit?
Daisy
I believe it is a first edition. The copyright date is 2001.

How would you compare this to horizon?
The 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.

I have the home study kit but cannot find the oral assessment recording forms. Where are they located?
The 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.

How long does each lesson typically take for Saxon Math 1?
It 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!

Have the Saxon math homeschool editions been aligned to common core?
The 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.

What manipulative kit goes with Saxon 1 through Saxon 3? I would like to not have to purchase an additional kit later on. Thanks!
Shantel J
I 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).

Where are the Master pages for Math 1? I only see Master pages located in the Student Workbook starting at 1-19A but it has already started requesting them to be used in the second lesson (Master 1-2)?? I'm so confused as to where the Masters pages might be. Please help!! Thank you :)
they are throughout the kids workbook, in the teachers manual it informs you on that lesson and you will find it for that lesson.

Does Saxon Math 1 match up to first grade?
holli b
It 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.
