HOMESCHOOL REVIEWS |
Saxon Math 54 through CalculusSaxon PublishersThis series is one of my 100 Top Picks! See the complete review in 100 Top Picks for Homeschool Curriculum. The Saxon Math series is hugely popular among homeschoolers, largely because it works so well for students working independently. It is very different in the upper elementary grades through high school from the Saxon program for K-3. See the detailed reviews of each book in Top Picks. There is an extended review of the Calculus course on this website. Saxon two-digit grade level designations can help you figure out the correct grade level for each book, although free placement tests are available at their website. Typically the second of the two digits indicates the grade level usage for average to bright students. The first digit indicates the grade for students working a little below level. For example, Math 76 would be for average to bright sixth graders or for slower seventh graders. Books available are: |
