What is Saxon Math?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It is a series of textbooks for teaching math. It is very traditional math. Every lesson has a series of problems ( about 30) that reviews concepts previously taught. There are no photos or pictures in the books.

My homeschooled children used the Saxon Math books. They entered college at the ages of 13, 12, and 13. At 15 all had finished Calculus III. By the age of 18 the two younger children graduated with B.S. degrees in mathematics. The older of these two earned a masters in math by the age of 20.

The oldest is a nationally and internationally ranked athlete. He choose accounting. He has traveled worldwide. He worked for our church for a few years in Eastern Europe and as a result is completely fluent in Russian. He competes in his sport and will soon finish his MBA ( accounting) at an age typical for his contemporaries.

Saxon Math is very popular with homeschoolers.

Saxon Math is a math curriculum that is the best out there. It goes from K right through to Physics and Calculus. My kids all used it and are all excellent in math and their mother's math ability improved dramatically as she taught them and finally learned all the stuff that they tried to cram down my er.. her throat in public school. :)

Mr. mm has had engineers that he works with who know about Saxon Math tell him that it is by far the best curriculum for preparing kids for a real life, practical application of math.

When engineers tell you that, you listen.
