coloradomomof5 Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Can someone break down Horizon vs Saxon math? I like Saxon but it is Sooooooo teacher intensive. How do the two compare? How are the lessons taught in Horizon? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CuriculumMom Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 In full disclosure, I currently use Horizons as a supplement to RightStart. I have used Horizons in the past as a standalone. I have never used Saxon so I cannot compare the two, but I have found Horizons easy to use. I only use the workbooks, not the teacher's manual, and have not found the need for it. I would imagine that it is necessary in the higher levels, but K-3 is pretty self-explanatory. From looking at Saxon samples in the past, Horizons is definitely a lot more colorful, but spiral in nature like Saxon. It is all worksheet based, and I simply introduce the concept, and then hand the worksheet off to my child. Hopefully someone with experience with Saxon will chime in and give you a better comparison. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
