Saxon Math

To master mathematics, students need to build on prior learning—what new concepts they can learn depends on which concepts they already know. Saxon Math™ provides a learning structure proven to advance students steadily and assuredly to higher levels of understanding.
Ensures students build and retain mastery of mathematical concepts.

Develops deeper understanding through integration of mathematical strands.
Ensures measurable student improvement based on 35 years of success.

Check out Cathy Duffy's Reiews of Saxon Math:

An integrated approach to mathematics

In Saxon Math, concepts from every math strand are woven together and connected throughout the year. Skills or concepts are reinforced throughout the years, helping students build a strong foundation of understanding.
Incremental
An incremental approach gives students the time to understand and practice a small concept before adding the next step.
Distributing
Distributing skills across the year ensures that students have time to practice and master a concept.
Cumulative
Cumulative practice and assessments cover ideas from earlier lessons to ensure students retain and make connections between concepts.

Built on a learning curve proven to raise achievement

While other math curricula ask students to progress from simple to complex concepts in just a few weeks, Saxon Math scaffolds instruction of each concept and continues to review information introduced earlier. This allows students the time and practice to retain math concepts to the level of mastery.

Student Experience

Clear instruction and hands-on activities engage all learners.

Easy-to-follow daily lessons offer a consistent structure to deepen mastery.

  • Classroom Discourse
    Daily discussion and practice help students build an understanding of basic skills, mathematical concepts, and problem-solving strategies.  

  • Hands-On Learning
    New concepts expand students’ knowledge through hands-on activities using manipulatives and other materials.

  • Writing 
    Students gain depth of knowledge through written practice, which gives them the opportunity to review and apply concepts.

Frequent, cumulative assessments ensure students stay on track.

Summative assessments, including Power Up, Cumulative, Benchmark, and End-of-Year tests, allow teachers to continuously monitor progress.

Formative assessments conducted through daily instruction, lesson practice, and written practice provide immediate feedback for intervention and enrichment.
