Homework
"Lesson Practice" - We will complete the lesson practice problems together during class each week. The "Lesson Practice" covers the material from the Lesson. I will teach concepts from the lesson and we will work on the practice problems together to get a better understanding of those concepts. "Mixed Practice" - Learners should complete at least odd problems for homework. Saxon scaffolds upon previous lessons, so completing these problems is important. Learners or guardians should check the answers in the "Solutions Book". "Tests" - Guardians should check the answers using the "Solutions book". "Fact Quizzes" - Fact quizzes should be completed with each lesson. "Investigations" - These should be completed as intended. "Topics" - These should be completed as intended. "Supplemental" problems - These are found at the back of the big book for additional problems. They can be completed as needed for additional practice. These will not be reviewed unless a learner requests a specific question.

Class Experience

US Grade 6 - 9
We will complete the second half (lessons 61-120) of Saxon Math 8/7 (An Incremental Development-third edition) in this 16 week long semester course.

Prerequisite:
1) The successful completion of the previous semester of this book series or other 6th grade course.
2) Placement tests can be found here: https://www.christianbook.com/page/homeschool/math/saxon-math?search=saxon%20math&search_term=saxon%20math&ps_exit=RETURN|legacy

Class time:
I will teach concepts for the lesson and we will complete the "Lesson Practice" ("Practice Set"). Learners should come to class prepared with their student book and pencil. They should have paper. Students will have plenty of opportunity to ask questions throughout class.

Class topics can be found in the table of contents here: 
https://www.christianbook.com/saxon-math-87-third-ed-student/9781591413202/pd/793206 - I am not affiliated with this website nor am I suggesting it, I am only showing the table of contents. 

Guardians should let me know if they would like to be aware of participation (or lack of participation), video on/off, etc, in class. 

Camera/Video: I prefer the camera to be on the entire class time so that I can see from their facial expressions if they are understanding the concepts or not. With video off, if the learner is not replying, I do not know if they are confused or distracted. I prefer video on with all of my math courses, but it is not required.

Refund Policy: 
All of my semester courses are set at “moderate” refund policy. 
Full refund until a week in advance, or within 24 hours of purchase. Then 75% refund within the first week (of the first class). 

I will give homework suggestions and encourage learners to grade work so they can see what mistakes they made and learn from their mistakes.  

I love math and making it simple for learners!
