Welcome to Saxon Math 1
Introduction to Saxon Math 1 curriculum covering foundational number concepts for early math learners. Students are introduced to the Saxon Math approach with counting, comparing numbers, basic addition and subtraction, and foundational math vocabulary.
Key Concepts
New Concept Welcome to a new way of learning math! We will build a solid foundation by introducing concepts one step at a time and practicing them together. What’s next To begin, we'll explore the number line. Next, you’ll use it to understand, compare, and order the foundational numbers of math: the integers.
Common Questions
What is Saxon Math 1?
Saxon Math 1 is the first level of the Saxon Mathematics curriculum, designed for early elementary students. It introduces number concepts, basic addition and subtraction, patterns, measurement, and geometry through a spiral approach that reviews concepts regularly.
What topics does Saxon Math 1 cover?
Saxon Math 1 covers counting to 100 and beyond, basic addition and subtraction facts, place value, patterns, time and money, simple fractions, basic measurement, and introduction to geometric shapes.
What is the Saxon Math teaching method?
Saxon Math uses a spiral approach where new concepts are introduced gradually and continuously reviewed in later lessons. This distributed practice helps students master skills through repeated exposure rather than learning and moving on.
How is Saxon Math 1 different from other math programs?
Saxon Math differs from other programs by introducing concepts incrementally and reviewing them in every subsequent lesson. Rather than focusing on one topic at a time, students practice many concepts daily, building mastery through consistent repetition.
