Your sixth grader is on the cusp of upper level math, so how do you make sure that young mind is solidly prepared for the coming algebra, geometry, and more? If your child has spent the grammar years learning with Saxon and has mastered the concepts in Saxon 7/6, we recommend heading right to Saxon Algebra 1/2. But if your student is a newcomer to classical education or needs to shore up the math foundation—especially arithmetic concepts—Saxon 8/7 is an excellent option for a pre-algebra course. To get you rolling, the Saxon Math 8/7 Homeschool Kit contains the 3rd edition of the student text, tests and worksheets volume, and solutions manual.

Building upon the principles taught in Saxon 7/6, the Saxon 8/7 course reviews arithmetic calculation, measurements, geometry, and other skills and introduces pre-algebra, ratios, probability, and statistics. Students will learn about adding/subtracting/multiplying fractions, equivalent fractions, the metric system, repeating decimals, scientific notation, pi, graphing inequalities, multiplying algebraic terms, the Pythagorean Theorem, the slope-intercept form of linear equations, and more.

The Saxon 8/7 curriculum uses a spiral approach to extend a student's understanding of math concepts, sharpen mental math skills, and build student confidence in solving problems. We strongly believe young minds are far more capable than many people think, and that's why we recommend using this program ahead of the stated grade level—something John Saxon himself told us he supported. With the help of incremental advances and continuous review, your budding scholar will rise to the challenge of grasping concepts and experience the triumph of ever-improving mastery.
