Canadianmumof5 Posted November 5, 2011 Share Posted November 5, 2011 (can those 2 even be in the same sentence?) I'm a little slow on the uptake of the c-rods discussion :blush: I do like Saxon (i know, i know, you either love it or hate it), and the kids seem to be doing well with it so far. BUT......DD seems to be struggling a little with her basic facts. Not a lot. I'm sure it is normal but with DS10 being so quick in math, it is hard not to compare the 2. Anyway, I see that many here are thrilled with the c-rods. And I'm wondering if the concept can still apply even though we are using Saxon. Hope this isn't a dumb question? Is anyone doing Saxon with these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no reason one couldn't use Cuisenaire Rods to good effect with any math program including Saxon. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
