"HONEST" SAXON 6/5 HOMESCHOOL MATH & NICOLE THE MATH LADY REVIEW // DO WE LOVE IT? OR HATE IT ?

[@donnabolt5847]

Great review 👍 I used Saxon with my 2 older boys. Very thorough. No learning gaps. Not the most fun but they got it and truly understood the math.

[@brittanyolga]

Thank you so much! And Yes I totally agree! It is straight to the point no fluff.

[@AtHomeWithJill]

Thank you for being so thorough!!!!!!! I’m leaning towards switching to this for next year!!!

[@armetriadboyz]

Hey Brittany! I like how you demonstrate a curriculum. The way you go through the pages, help us decide on whether or not we want to try that curriculum. Even when it comes to your toddlers. Thank you for that.

[@brittanyolga]

No problem. It is so crazy how much my toddlers impact the curriculum I choose lol 😆

[@jessicajarquin8093]

Thank you for sharing about Nicole the math lady. I was going to purchase the dive cd for this course but I think I'll give Nicole a try this fall.

[@theselittlesprouts]

I feel you on the math struggle. Math and writing have been our biggest struggles this year. But we are happy with the math we are currently using. I’m so glad you found something that is growing confidence in your daughter!

[@miriansp1020]

Which Math curriculum did you use?

[@renaecruz7877]

I'm so glad you shared the cons as well as the positives! That's so helpful while searching for a curriculum for my girls-also, sharing your daughter's work was really eye-opening-I'd love a link to the workbook she's using!

[@brittanyolga]

I am so happy this was helpful. I have linked the math notebook below. We have loved using schoolnest notebooks. They are great. They come is all different colors. amzn.to/3rzagmF

@@brittanyolga That's fantastic, thank you!

[@Dreblueskies]

New to your channel and I love how bright and cheery your background is. Seems like Saxon is a tried and true math program. For some reason it intimidates me.

[@duncanpartyof6513]

This video is right on time! I’m looking to purchase this for my up coming 6th and 4th grader. Thank you for your time and effort in producing this video

[@lifewithginab]

Sounds like a great program! Enjoyed your honest review. So good to have program our kids like!

[@ShardaeRenee]

Thanks for the honest review! I'm glad you found something that you and your daughter both enjoy. Our hard subject in my home is reading so I know all to well the feeling when you find something that works!

[@brittanyolga]

No problem ! I am so happy we found Saxon. I hope you find a reading program or curriculum that will work out for you all soon ☺️.

[@ShardaeRenee]

@@brittanyolga yes we have. We've only been homeschooling for 2 weeks! 🤣😂 She was in public school before then. So I had plenty of time to find a curriculum that works for us.

[@suzannelesser5468]

Aw, you are so personable and likable! Thanks for your review. We have just switched, too, and are liking it so far. How are you getting through the lessons faster? I noted you are having her do just 1/2 the mixed practice. Are you doing more than one lesson a day, then?

[@lifewithginab]

Love buying a good used curriculum for the fraction of the price! 🙌

[@brittanyolga]

Yes me too !! It felt like a steal lol 😆

[@fab5bailey369]

Another great video💕. You have me eyeing Saxon for the "projects". We are currently with Abeka. Also, thanks for sharing the math notebook. Maybe in another video could you share how you do the science notebook,please.

[@jessicalutz5277]

Thank you for such an informative and thorough video! We are also transitioning from Abeka and your comparison gave me confidence!

[@SummerMeyers]

Great review! Loved this flip through. ❤️❤️

[@brittanyolga]

Thank you so much 😊

[@kasiaswank2598]

Thanks for this review :) I am considering Saxon math for next school year. Could you please tell me how long on average are the Nicole The Math Lady videos are?

[@jcav7]

Thank you for such a thorough review.

[@nicolejacobs4117]

Love this! My son used sacon when he was in private school. We may make the switch back now that we're homeschooling! Could you link the Mathematics Notebook?

[@brittanyolga]

Yes! I really have enjoyed this program. I linked below the school nest notebooks you can get them in all different colors. amzn.to/3qcQj46

[@fr-em9my]

I just finished Abeka 3 with my child which I loved. However, it looks like Abeka might slow down now so I am thinking about Saxon. What was the last year you did Abeka with your daughter and which year did you switch to start Saxon?

[@brittanyolga]

We completed Abeka 3 and did about half of Abeka 4 then we switched to Saxon. I really wished I would have followed my gut and started out our homeschooling year off using Saxon. 😊

[@JenNTim509]

Where do you purchase those math notebooks from? Thanks!

[@jaclyn4412]

Amazon school nest notebooks

[@CristinaTorress_]

Do you have a link for the manipulatives you showed

[@SummerMeyers]

Nothing wrong with buying used! Most of my teacher stuff is used because $$$. 😆

[@brittanyolga]

Yes !!! I am addicted to buying used now. It has saved us so much money 😍

[@mamabear_the3]

I am switching to saxon math soon. How do you choose even and odd for your child to do. Thank you for this great review

[@brittanyolga]

I hope it works out for you guys 😍. We do evens on even days and odds on odd days so it is easy for my daughter to remember. It also tells her on Nicole the Math Lady what problems she will be doing for that day. I assign extra practice if needed in the problems she gets wrong often. 😊

[@mamabear_the3]

@@brittanyolga thanks for the explanation. I been struggling with math as well this year.

[@joyfullyhomeschoolingboys]

We put out the same video on the same day same title…..😂😂😂 homeschool life. I love Saxon Math

[@executivelifetv]

Hi, first of all thank you so much for the video. I am a new homeschooling mom and your contact is very valuable. So thank you for sharing. I have a question do you do her math once a day or once a week? Is it designed to be done daily?

[@jessicajones611]

What age child is this for please?

[@brittanyolga]

Saxon middle grade series starts with 3rd to 4th grade and goes all the way through high school. 😀
