Exploring Saxon Math: Incremental Learning and Diverse Learning Styles
Saxon Math utilizes a systematic approach to learning, focusing on incremental education that promotes steady review of previous material to reinforce understanding. While it highlights the effectiveness of gradually introducing new concepts, it may initially lack sufficient practice on these concepts. The curriculum offers a structured framework, catering to various learning styles—kinesthetic, visual, and auditory—ensuring students engage with math in a fun and interactive way. Interactive webpages and practical applications enhance student practice, driving better learning outcomes.

What is Saxon math? • Teaching method for incremental learning • New concept vs. older concept • Strength -> Steady review of previous material • Weakness -> Not enough practice, initially, on newer concepts
Curriculum Sample http://www.hmheducation.com/saxonmathaga/pdf/features/aga_adaptations.pdf
Structured Approach to Learning • How do students learn? • Kinetically (Movement) • Visually (Sight/Seeing) • Audibly (Hearing)
Solution: Interactive Webpage • Uses a systematic, concept orientated, approach • Gives students additional practice on previous concepts • Addresses all three types of learning styles • Provides a fun, interactive way of learning
