Category Description for Saxon Middle School Programs:

Featuring the same methodology as previous editions plus enhanced mathematical content, Homeschool Kits contain a non-consumable student edition textbook, consumable tests and worksheets for one student, and a solutions manual. All three components of the Homeschool Kit come softbound. The Student Edition Text uses a two-color page layout, as opposed to the black and white pages of prior editions. Tests and Worksheets include a significant amount of fact drill practice, course tests, as well as various forms for recording student progress. Solutions Manual contains solutions to all problems in the text and tests.




Category Description for Saxon Math:

Students like Saxon because they feel successful in math instead of overwhelmed.

The most popular homeschooling math program hands down! Highly recommended by both Mary Pride and Cathy Duffy, Saxon Math also wins our award for the "Most Requested Text." Saxon math is a "user-friendly" math program - even for Algebra, Trigonometry, Calculus and other usually difficult math topics. 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. Higher scores on standardized tests and increased enrollments in upper-level math and science classes have resulted where Saxon has been used in public schools. Students like Saxon because they feel successful in math instead of overwhelmed. Because of the format, children are able to work more independently.

Classical Conversations Curriculum for Challenge A
Angela N on Jul 2, 2022
Because it's Saxon! I love the spiral approach and the kids retain so much more from this format. I've been using it for more than 20 years of homeschooling and the kids were able to successfully tackle math once they got to college.

We have used Saxon for 15 years. I was using a book for public schools but want the answer key so my older children can help me teach/grade when needed. I wanted more tests as well.

Saxon Math is rigorous mathematical training for the "Well Trained Mind".....results....results..results....every year Iowa Assessments 97-99 percentile for Math...just received 2020 scores 99 Percentile again.

I picked this item because Saxon math spiral review has worked well for my son. He has always struggled with math, but it isn't so much the concepts as it is the math facts/drill. So the repetition of this program has worked well. I think for those strong in math, they don't maybe need as much review so they can get through it faster. The Dive math CD gives extra teaching and is a helpful supplement to the program.
Donna K on Jan 29, 2020
Good value, suggested by another homeschool parent.
Sarah R on Aug 27, 2019
This whole kit will allow my son to work mostly independently, which is best for his learning style, But I can still give him the supervision and help when he needs.
Rachel Z on Aug 21, 2019
My son son has used this format before and seems to do well with it. The DIVE - CD will be a new item, I can only think that it will reinforce the Saxon Format for learning.
LILIANA M on Mar 31, 2019
I looked at the reviews and this seems like a good curriculum for next year.
Kimberly C on Mar 19, 2019
I have used Saxon in the past with my children and we love how easy it is to use and comprehend.

I love saxon and always use it
Cari P on Aug 22, 2018
I have only heard good things about this curriculum and I'm excited to use this for the first time!
Rosalie C. on Aug 13, 2018
We used Teaching Textbooks pre-algebra last year when my son was an 8th grader and he learned the statistics and geometry and other maths fine in it but all the pre-algebra expressions and equations are still a mystery to him so we are starting over trying this.
Amy H on Aug 4, 2018
Really looking for an upper level math course that works. We need a lot of help with teaching and working out the problems so hopefully this will be a good fit for us.
Kristyn B on Jul 22, 2018
My daughter needs the kit for her home school program
Beto B on Feb 23, 2018
It is the preferred curriculum for Classical Conversations Challenge A program.
Alex V on Jan 10, 2018
You offered everything I needed.
Dorothy E on Sep 1, 2017
Saxon math is very straight forward math. My child can complete it on his own most of the time. I had heard good things about the DIVE cd so I am hoping that will help with the more difficult concepts.
Mia C on Aug 31, 2017
We have been using Saxon Math Homeschool for years and love it!
Ann W on Aug 28, 2017
Love Saxon. Good deal!
dayanara c on Aug 23, 2017
Using Saxon last year improved my daughters achievement test scores because Saxon's continual review keeps concepts fresh. I want to try the DVD this year to promote more independent learning.
Julene C on Aug 16, 2017
We have used Saxon Math with our other four children. We have found it to be the best Math curriculum around! The DIVE cd is a great teaching tool to have.
Katherine W on Jul 17, 2017
We love the Dive Cd's! They offer a little extra guidance for the independent learner.
Casey G on May 19, 2017

BEST ANSWER: I would have her take the placement test on the Saxon website and that way you can see what level she needs to start at.
How long are each of the Dive lessons?
A shopper on Feb 20, 2017
BEST ANSWER: They vary from 5-20 minutes, with most being about 10-15 minutes.

Saxon Math Homescool 8/7
We have been using Saxon Math Homeschool edition for several years now. We love the repetition and the flow. We’ve used Dive DVDs the past 2 years because they go on to explain/teach the lesson and give examples that are not in the book (like the Saxon teacher DVD - which follows word for word exactly what’s in the Teacher’s Manual). Highly recommended.

Saxon 8/7 Math with Dive
We had started with a different math system prior to Saxon. However, we were having a difficult time understanding how to complete the problems. Explanations not thorough.
Since, we started working with Saxon Math and Dive , we have been succeeding with all the problems. The explanation in the book along with the disc are very thorough. If you need further review, just stop disc and listen to instructor as many times as needed.
We will continue using Saxon through our Senior year. I highly recommend this curriculum.

We have used Saxon with the Dive CD for the last 3 years grades 5 to 7 This combination has changed math time completely it is no longer a frustrating time for us It is the best money I have spent for her math education I will continue to purchase it through high school Since Saxon lists the lesson number with each problem if she does not understand how to work the problem she can view that lesson on the Dive CD again Dr Shormann gives a few examples in each lesson and then he gives a few practice problems The student pauses the CD and works the problem and then they watch Dr Shormann work the problem to make sure they are working it correctly His examples and practice problems are different from the ones given in the book
