Saxon Math 1 Teacher’s Edition

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. Concepts from every math strand are woven together and connected throughout the year. Skills or concepts are reinforced, helping students build a strong foundation of understanding. An incremental approach gives students the time to understand and practice a small concept before adding the next step. Distributing skills across the year ensures that students have time to practice and master a concept. Cumulative practice and assessments cover ideas from earlier lessons to ensure students retain and make connections between concepts. Students build skills and confidence through daily opportunities to review, develop mathematical reasoning, and apply knowledge. Engaging manipulatives and hands-on learning tools help students develop and demonstrate understanding. In Saxon Math 1 students work on basic foundation skills: comparing and ordering numbers, mastering all basic addition facts and most basic subtraction facts, adding two-digit numbers without regrouping, naming fractions, and measuring with inches, feet, and centimeters. Your child will also learn to create, read, and write observations from real graphics, pictographs, and bar graphs. The Saxon Math 1 Teacher Edition is a vital component of the Saxon Math 1 program, providing essential lesson plans and teaching information. It's designed to be used in tandem with the student materials, ensuring a consistent and effective approach to teaching math to first graders.

This book contains 130 lessons to cover a full year of math. The Saxon Math 1 Teacher’s Edition contains the lesson plans with detailed instructions and strategies on how to reinforce the foundational math skills introduced in the program. Note: Saxon Math K-3 Manipulatives are available separately.
