Homework
Frequency: included
Feedback: included
Details: Problems from "Mixed Practice" in Saxon Math will be encouraged as 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. No more than one per day should be completed to ensure repetition for learning. "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.
