Homeschool Kit Contents:
Saxon's primary mathematics programs have been carefully
planned and packaged. Each homeschool kit comes with all necessary
materials required for one-on-one instruction. The Math K
homeschool kit contains the following:
Teacher's Manual - The heart of
each K-3 program is the teacher's manual, which employs a unique
instructional format. It contains daily lessons, each of which includes
pre-class preparation instructions, a list of materials, and the entire
scripted lesson. Scripted lessons provide the parent with questioning
strategies and language designed to help children understand mathematical
concepts. Since the teacher's manual is nonconsumable, it can be used in
successive years with the purchase of new student workbooks and meeting
books. Meeting Book -
Each grade level has its own consumable meeting book,
which is used during The Meeting at the beginning of each day.
Lesson Components: Each lesson
includes a daily meeting, a new increment of instruction, guided practice
of new and previously introduced concepts, and number fact practice.
Written and oral assessments are built into the program and are given at
regular intervals. The Meeting
- The daily meeting is an opening exercise in
which children practice skills related to time, temperature, money,
counting, patterning, and problem solving.
Number Fact Practice - Children
are presented with strategies to help learn number facts. They are
encouraged to recall facts through the use of pattern recognition. Facts
are practiced orally, and students test their skills in timed drills (fact
practice sheets), competing against past performances.
Written Practice - Children
complete the first part of the written practice with parent assistance.
The remaining half, which mirrors work completed in class, is done later
in the day. The time delay between practice sessions improves retention.
Oral Assessments - Each
assessment questions children on skills they have practiced for at least
five lessons. In Math K, all assessments are oral, and they are
given every seven lessons. |

Saxon Phonics prepares children to be successful, independent readers and spellers.
Supported by research on effective reading instruction, Saxon's phonics
programs are appropriate for all children, including those with learning
difficulties. No prior knowledge of phonics is required to teach these
success-oriented programs. Saxon has completely scripted the lessons to
make teaching easy.
Saxon's Phonics K program has
been
carefully planned and packaged in a homeschool kit to make your teaching
experience easier. Phonics K
begins by working with auditory discrimination skills to assess children's
phonemic awareness -- that is, their cognizance of the different sounds of
the English language. Phonemic awareness indicates that children are ready
to learn to read. When they are ready, the parent begins to introduce each
letter individually. In order to allow plenty of time for exposure, one
week is devoted to the introduction of each letter. |
|
Phonics K
students will:
learn the sound, name, and written form of
each letter
review daily all
previously taught letters to ensure sufficient exposure to and mastery of
each letter
create words by blending
sounds
spell by unblending
sounds
never be asked to read
or write sounds that have not been taught
be assessed regularly to
monitor progress
participate in games and
activities that motivate, reinforce, and remediate |

Homeschool Kit Contents:
Saxon's primary phonics programs have been carefully
planned and packaged. All you need to successfully teach each program is
included in the homeschool kit. Phonics K, Phonics 1, and
Phonics 2 homeschool kits contain the following:
Teacher's Manual - The Teacher's
Manual has been carefully written to use language and provide activities
appropriate for the student's grade level. The unique instructional format
provides the parent with directions and lesson scripts that include
possible student responses. Each lesson contains a list of materials,
preparation instructions, the entire scripted lesson, and reduced versions
of applicable student materials. Also in the manual are introductory
materials explaining how to implement the program, coding charts, a
glossary, word lists that may be used for extension activities, and
detailed game directions.
Teaching Tools -
Teaching tools are included to help implement the
program. These include review decks, kid cards, a rule book, an audiotape,
and a video instructional guide.
Literature Extensions - Literature Extensions, now part of the
Phonics K-2 teaching tools, supplement phonics instruction by
incorporating quality works of classic and contemporary literature. All
titles have been carefully selected from core reading lists and should be
readily available in libraries or bookstores. A booklet of fourteen
extensions is provided for each level of the primary phonics series. Each
extension provides practice in literary analysis and comprehension skills
as well as an activity for phonics reinforcement.
Student Materials - The student is given a set of grade-appropriate
practice materials with which to review the concepts he or she is
learning. The set includes a two-part student workbook, student readers,
and a colorful alphabet strip with D'Nealian-style letters on one side and
block-style letters on the other. Phonics K and 1 include a
complete set of alphabet letter tiles. Phonics 1 and 2
contain an irregular spelling booklet. |
