There are many curriculums out there. Some focus on the full grade level from math to language arts and electives. While others only specialize in one subject. On the topic of one subject, the one subject that many parents fret over is math.
We’ve tried a handful of different math curriculums, but in my opinion, one of the best math curriculums is Saxon. While it was fun using other curriculums with pretty pictures and colors, Saxon works for us. The foundations matter, and Saxon drills the basics of math.
Math is one of those subjects where topics build on top of the other, and if the foundations are shaky, then there will be problems down the road. Saxon may seem repetitive sometimes, but it’s done for a purpose and has been beneficial. This is why Saxon is continually recommended by homeschoolers time and time again.

The textbooks were originally created by John Saxon Jr, but since his passing, there have been newer additions to the line of Math books. We’ve used the older versions and have been happy with it.
If you're looking for a Math subject curriculum for homeschool, Saxon Math is worth the consideration.
