LMCme Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Hi All, I'm planning on scribing Saxon 1, at least for a while, with my 4 year old. He's done amazing in Saxon math K, and he's enjoying himself, so I wanted to keep going with him. His fine motor is not quite there, however, for him to do worksheets and so I was planning on scribing for him. First, has anyone else tried scribing Saxon 1 for a young 'un, and is it something you would recommend or was it a disaster? Second, if I am scribing, do I need the workbook? If the workbook pages were printed in miniature in the teacher's manual, I was thinking about just copying out questions onto a whiteboard and answering them together rather than buying the workbooks. Thank you, LMC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gil Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 You may consider accepting an oral answer to worksheet questions. Then neither of you will need to write anything. Just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I've done it both ways and highly recommend skipping the worksheets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petrichor Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I still occassionally let ds6 tell me the answers in lieu of writing them down. There are no mini worksheets in my singapore manual (only answers, listed out), but I purchased the home instructor guides, not the teacher guides.

Petrichor Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Ok, wow, just reread the OP. I had it in my head that you wrote Singapore, not Saxon. Just ignore me, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
