Category Description for Saxon K-3 Program

Tried and true, Saxon Math has been widely used by generations of homeschoolers. Learning is incremental and each new concept is continuously reviewed, so the learning has time to “sink in” instead of being forgotten when the next topic is presented. Students like Saxon because they feel successful in math instead of overwhelmed. K-3 levels are manipulative-based, and the lessons are parent-centered. Lessons are scripted for the parent, and there is a list of required manipulatives.

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. If teaching more than one student at the same level, you will only need one meeting book. Consumable Student Workbooks are used in grades 1-3 only and contain student materials, flash cards and practice pages. The Math K Home Study Kit contains teacher edition and meeting book. Math 1, 2, and 3 kits contain teacher edition, meeting book, and a set of 2 workbooks. Manipulatives are a vital, integral part of the program; these are not included in the Home Study Kits, but are available through us also.

Manipulatives are an integral part of the K-3 programs. These are not included in the Home Study Kit and must be purchased separately. Some manipulatives are considered required and some are optional; we offer kits both ways to fit your budget. See our website for even more options and upgrades, including complete K-3 manipulative kits.
