Horizons Math for the Elementary Grades

 

Since 1996, we have used Horizons Math workbooks for the elementary grades.  We have tried a few other curriculums since then, but we always go back to Horizons, which is published by Alpha Omega.    For each grade level there is a teacher manual and two workbooks.   We mainly use the teacher manuals for easier grading, but they also provide teaching tips, hands-on activities, supplemental worksheets, and instructions.   Starting in the 4th grade, there is more direct teaching to the student in the workbook, with less oral instruction by the parent.  Horizons workbooks are colorful and provide a sensible amount of review.  You can click on the titles for more detailed products descriptions at the CBD web site.

Math Manipulatives for the Elementary Grades

 

 

 

Saxon Math for Middle & High School

We used Saxon Math up through Algebra 2 for several years, until we joined a co-op which was using a different curriculum.   There is plenty of review!  Please see the CBD descriptions on the individual product pages for more detail about what is covered in each course.

Saxon Math 76 Home Study Kit Fourth Edition 
Math 7/6 introduces the concepts, procedures, and vocabulary your student needs to be successful in upper-level algebra and geometry courses. Covers compound interest; functions and coordinate graphing; integers; exponential expressions; divisibility concepts; prime factorization; ratios and proportions; radius, circumference and pi; statistics and probability; and complementary and supplementary angles. Kit includes 744-page softcover student text, work sheets book, and solutions manual.

Math 87 Home Study Kit, Third Edition
Saxon Math 8/7 is a balanced, integrated mathematics program for the seventh grade. It emphasizes the concepts and skills necessary for your child's success in upper-level mathematics courses, including scientific notation; statistics and probability; ratios and proportions; simplifying and balancing equations; factoring algebraic expressions; slope-intercept form; graphing linear inequalities; arcs and sectors; and the Pythagorean theorem.

Algebra 1/2, Revised Home Kit
Containing 123 lessons, this text is the culmination of prealgebra mathematics, a full pre-algebra course and an introduction to geometry and discrete mathematics. Some topics covered include Prime and Composite numbers; fractions & decimals; order of operations, coordinates, exponents, square roots, ratios, algebraic phrases, probability, the Pythagorean Theorem and more. Utilizing an incremental approach to math, your students will learn in small doses at their own pace, increasing retention of knowledge and satisfaction!
