Should Saxon 76 lesson #10 be extremely easy?

[TMarie]

My son tested into Saxon 76. If I had given him partial credit on the placement test for answers that were "almost correct," he would have placed in 87. I decided to give him the best foundation and go with 76. (He completed Bob Jones Math 5 last year.)

 

So... by lesson 10 should he have learned anything new? He is B-O-R-E-D right now in math. Yet, I know it's very early in the book. :001_smile:

Generally, the first 30 lessons are review of the previous book.  You could give him one exam per day until you come to new material (usually around test 5.)

I would let him test through.

Yep.  FIrst 30 lessons are always review.  Ridiculously easy.  Worth doing if you had a long summer and your kid is rusty.  Otherwise, test out of them.  Don't just skip them though.  Only skip them if your son gets 80% or higher on the tests.

Remember with Saxon the subsequent problem sets expand upon the previous lesson material.

Yes. 

And more importantly so should Lesson #30

Thanks!

 

I am going to give him the next test and see if he gets and 80%.
