Math-Struggling Mom of Six Loves Saxon Home School Curriculum

Saxon Home School Curriculum Review

Saxon Home School Curriculum Review

How does this homeschooling mom of six, who once struggled through math herself, successfully teach math? Her secret: Saxon home school curriculum!

I have found Saxon home school curriculum to be a solid math program, that forces kids to practice their math facts and not just learn the math concepts. I also have found the DIVE CD to be very helpful with the older students, and has freed me up to work with the younger ones.

I have used Saxon home school curriculum for four years, and plan to continue. I have used 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5/4. It is about the same price as any math curriculum, and with six kids it will pay off to use it with all of them. You can find the teacher manuals fairly easily on e-bay, and then purchase the workbooks at CBD.

Kris, thanks for sharing what you like about Saxon home school curriculum; my oldest just graduated high school and we used it for every grade. I have never used the Dive CDs – I will check those out; helpful, I'm sure with the upper level grades! One thing I would include when purchasing used materials is to make sure the editions match. Happy homeschooling, Heather :)
