SAXON MATH K
This kit contains a teacher's manual and meeting book which include all the information that you will need to teach kindergarten math concepts to your child.
There are two parts to the program: the Meeting and the Lesson.
During the Meeting, your child will answer questions about the calendar and practice counting, patterning, telling time, and estimation. A new increment or skill is taught during the Lesson.

The scripted lessons in the Teacher's Manual provide language and techniques that have proven effective for teachers in a variety of settings, and include work sheets for your child to complete.

The program is designed so that 12 lessons are taught per month (about three lessons per week). On the other two days of the week, repeat the Meeting from the day before and use the materials that you have used in previous lessons to practice the skills and concepts introduced.

Note that certain manipulative materials need to be improvised or purchased separately.
