LPL First Grade Math Lesson Plans are formulated around Nancy Larson’s Saxon Math 2 curriculum and are supplemented with critical thinking problems written by LPL. LPL’s lesson plans provide 36 weeks of grids that have been conveniently broken down into four-day weeks. Because all LPL products are uniform, implementing our First Grade Math Lesson Plans into your co-op or personal home school will not only provide continuity, but will save you time breaking up Saxon’s individual lessons into your calendar year. LPL’s plans also provide weekly and quarterly material lists, resulting in immediate organization and ease with supply shopping and planning.

Saxon Math 2 is a strong foundational math program, which is widely used in private, public, and homeschool arenas. It provides scripted lessons that are easy for both teachers and students to follow. Students will learn math through discussion, hands-on experience using manipulative materials, and ample amounts of practice. The repetition of concepts provides continuous review and encourages long-term memory of math concepts learned.

Critical Thinking Problems by LPL add even more interest and diversity to Saxon’s wonderful math curriculum. The questions are written based on what your child has learned in Saxon Math, but on an even higher level. The problems, included with this purchase, are designed to be printed and written on, like a worksheet. Each week, you and your child will enjoy working the problems together. This activity should serve as an enriching weekly mini-lesson. An answer key is provided for your convenience.
