Stacey Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 What is the difference in content between the hardback texts and the paperbacks? I wasn't sure if they changed anything in the lessons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThelmaLou Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I know that the paperbacks are considered the homeschool editions. Beyond that, I'm not sure if the problems are identical to the hardback versions. I believe Rainbow only sells the paperback. I cover mine in contact paper for extra protection.

Mamabyrd Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 The hardbacks are older editions. Saxon switched to paperback a few years ago. As far as content, they are nearly the same. The new editions have math "investigation" lessons scattered throughout the book which the old, hardback versions do not have. These are different from the regular lessons; they are more conceptual. However, other than these the math instruction is the same whether you use the old or the new. HTH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
