"A Recipe for Math: Whats Cooking in the Classroom: Saxon or Traditional?" is an article which contrasts the unit-based approach of most traditional math texts to the incremental approach of the Saxon method. A Recipe for Math examines data from six different fourth grade classes at two schools in the south. The data shows that in all three comparisons, the Saxon groups exhibited greater growth using both the Saxon Math 4 and the Saxon 54 methods than did the groups using the traditional textbooks. Interviews with students and parents revealed that most felt the benefits of continuous practice and repetition were helpful. |
