Summary: Saxon Math is Great!
Comment: I have used Saxon Math in the public school since 1983. I have homeschooled my 3 children with Saxon Math. It is a wonderful program. I fell in love with the Algebra 1/2 book the first year I used it . I have used all the books from Math 54 to Advanced Math in the public school and homeschool. I have used it with Gifted and Slow Learners. All students can be successful if they will follow the directions and do each problem. My children loved it. They even use it in college to clearify work they are doing or to tutor students.

Summary: Excellent Text - produced PhD biophysical chemist!
Comment: I used the Saxon books through all of my High school math courses, and think they are *the* best way to learn algebra. The key to the success is really twofold. 1) New types of problems are introduced with every lesson - but these are not drilled into the student by giving them 20 or more "practice problems" to do. Instead, only about 5 of the "new" problems are given for practice - letting the new ideas "sink in" over a period of days. 2) Constant review. Because the student is not burdened with lots of new ideas every lesson, the remaining homework problems are review of everything the student has done to date. This ensures that the student doesn't forget how to do the math, and makes reviewing for a test almost obsolete. I am now in graduate school, soon to get my PhD in theoretical biophysics. Learning Algebra so well in high school put me far ahead in college. I now tutor out of the Saxon books (and others, depending on which schools the kids go to), and the Saxon kids are far ahead of the others in terms of retention and understanding. 'nuff said.

Summary: algebra 1: An Incremental Development
Comment: I used this book to homeschool my daughter. She is not a math whiz. I wish there would have been a few more practice problems included in the assignment. But when she didn't get something it was helpful that she had to look it up. It reviewed her often. It is not a book you can skip around with. You have to go lesson by lesson. But for a child who is struggling they have a few more lessons to get it and review it. She has improved greatly. Because she does not retain well she has many times to reintroduce a problem and work it out. It is like taking a test ever day. That is why we picked it.
