We have been using the Saxon Math series to teach Math in grades 1 through 5 for about the past five years. As a result, our students have scored very well on the ISAT. Concepts are spiraled in Saxon Math, which means that once a concept is taught, it will "show up" on homework and tests throughout the year. The ultimate goal in Saxon Math is for students to master the concepts they learn. Students in 5th grade also need to master their multiplication facts. It becomes very frustrating and difficult for students to multiply multi-digit numbers and solve long division problems if they don't know their facts. It cannot be stressed enough how important it is for students to memorize their multiplication facts.
