Saxon Math

Choose the pedagogy that will make a difference for your students.

The success of Saxon Math™ can be attributed to the program’s unique, effective, and research-based pedagogy, which helps students develop a deeper understanding of the Common Core State Standards and how to apply them.

No matter how well students initially learn a concept, if they are not able to retain their learning, connect it to other concepts, and apply it in problem-solving situations, they have not reached mastery. Saxon Math is designed to support the long-term mastery and applications that will make a difference during testing and in students’ future education and careers.

According to the pedagogy:

  • Incremental Concepts are taught in small, approachable increments.
  • Distributed Increments are spread throughout the year, building in complexity, so that by the end of the year students have reached deep understanding and fluency.
  • Cumulative Practice and assessments include concepts from the most recent lessons as well as from earlier in the year; ensuring students retain all concepts and can make connections between them.
