Saxon Math Grades 4-6

Which Saxon Math Edition

Do I use for

Grades 4 to Pre – Algebra?

For my recommendation on Pre-Algebra and beyond click here.

  Those of you out there who want to move over to Saxon Math always ask me which version to get. 

It became a bit complicated when Saxon sold out (yes, “sold out” – I’m sure John Saxon was rolling over in his grave) to Houghton Mifflin Harcourt around 2004. HMH is a common core, public school curriculum publisher.  Needless to say their versions are atrocious, in my opinion. For example, I flipped though their/HMH Algebra I and is has TWICE as many pages as the original. No thank you. Needless to say… their way of over explaining things is terrible for children. My daughter took one look at it (I took her to a used book store and asked her opinion) and she almost cried. She begged me not to make her do that one. (I never intended on doing so – I just wanted a student’s opinion.)

I posted pics above of the latest versions from from the traditional Saxon Publishers (before they became common-core-ized by HMH).

I recommend getting the Homeschool Kit. You NEED the Solutions Manual. Note that the test answers and solutions are not always in the Solutions Manual. So if you get the “Homeschool kit” you should be good to go. Otherwise you have to order each item separately and might not get all of the pieces you realize you need later. I don’t believe these latest version are available in hard cover. Only soft Cover. As you see from the picture above I spiraled two of them because it was too difficult for my girls to keep the pages open etc… You can typically do this at a copy store for around $5.

You can purchase them at Christian Book Distributers  or on Amazon. Here are the links on Amazon.
