Pilot Edition Texas OER 6-12 Math, COVID Emergency Release (CER 3.0)
CER Updates
On July 31, 2025, the CER pilot instructional materials that align with State Board of Education (SBOE)-approved Bluebonnet Learning materials will be removed from all TEA platforms [e.g., TEA Instructional materials website, Texas Gateway, Test Delivery System (TDS), OER-Assessment Viewing Application (AVA)].
The following CER pilot instructional materials will remain available until they are approved by the SBOE through the Instructional Materials Review and Approval (IMRA) process:
Pilot Accelerated Math (Grades 6 and 7)
Pilot Geometry
Pilot Algebra II
Bluebonnet Learning Updates
In November 2024, the following Bluebonnet Learning Edition 1 instructional materials were approved through the IMRA process by the SBOE:
K–3 Foundational Skills
K–5 Reading Language Arts
K–5 Math
Secondary Mathematics (Grades 6–8, Algebra I)
These instructional materials, as well as implementation supports and the Bluebonnet Learning pilot programs, will be available on the new Bluebonnet Learning Portal. The Bluebonnet Learning Portal will allow open access to all Bluebonnet Learning instructional materials, for any Texan, with no login necessary.
Covid Emergency Release, Pilot EditionsThe COVID Emergency Release, Pilot Edition V3, 6–12 Math is currently called Carnegie Learning 6–12 Texas Math Solution and includes teacher guides and student resources for learning together and individually. The vendor Carnegie Learning provided the base material for teachers to gain digital access to clearly articulated, coherent Texas Essential Knowledge and Skill (TEKS) aligned modules with daily lesson plans, ongoing formative assessment opportunities, and summative topic assessments.
The agency developed these learning resources as a contingency option for school districts during COVID. All resources are optional. Prior to publication, materials go through a rigorous third-party review. Review criteria include TEKS alignment, support for all learners, progress monitoring, implementation supports, and more. Products also are subject to a focus group of Texas educators.
Digital and Print AccessCurrently, 6–12 Math COVID Emergency Release Pilot Edition is available for transparent review on the Texas Gateway and offers all the necessary components of a high-quality curriculum with additional tools to help teachers with lesson planning and prep, plus resources to help families support learning at home.
Help guide continuous improvement by taking our online survey. If you have questions or concerns about the instructional materials, please email us.These are pilot materials and will not be submitted for IMRA Review.
16 The Revised Fine Arts TEKS
This course will provide an overview of the benefits of fine arts education for students and various aspects of fine arts programming, as well as the application of the revised TEKS for each discipline. This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered.
1 The Revised Math TEKS (Grades K–8): Achieving Fluency and Proficiency
The goals for participation are to define computational fluency, automaticity, mathematical proficiency, and conceptual understanding; to examine the learning progressions for computational fluency; to make connections between computational fluency, mathematical proficiency, and the process standards; and to explore computational fluency and mathematical proficiency activities. This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered.
1 The Revised Math TEKS (Grades K–8): Applying the Mathematical Process Standards
The goals for participation are to become familiar with the revised mathematical process standards and compare them to the current underlying processes and mathematical tools, to explore resources on the Texas Gateway, and to amplify instructional tasks. This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered.
1 The Revised Math TEKS (Grades K–8): Completing the Gap Analysis
The goals for participation are to become familiar with the focal points and TEKS comparison documents, to examine how to use the documents to improve overall mathematics instruction, and to explore vertical alignment of mathematical concepts and processes. This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered.
5 The Revised Math TEKS (Grades K–8) with Supporting Documents
The goals for participation are to become familiar with the focal points and the TEKS comparison documents, to examine how to use the documents to improve overall mathematics instruction, and to explore vertical alignment of mathematical concepts and processes within the Revised TEKS (2012). This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered.
1 The Revised Math TEKS (Grades 9–12): Achieving Fluency and Proficiency
The goals for participation are to define computational fluency, automaticity, mathematical proficiency, and conceptual understanding; to examine the learning progressions for computational fluency; to make connections between computational fluency, mathematical proficiency, and the process standards; and to explore computational fluency and mathematical proficiency activities. This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered.
1 The Revised Math TEKS (Grades 9–12): Applying the Mathematical Process Standards
The goals for participation are to become familiar with the mathematical process standards and compare them to the current underlying processes and mathematical tools, to explore resources on the Texas Gateway, and to amplify instructional tasks. This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered.
1 The Revised Math TEKS (Grades 9–12): Completing the Gap Analysis
The goals for participation are to study the revised TEKS; to explore curriculum and instructional gaps in student learning for the 2015–2016 implementation; to explore vertical connections; to explore instructional implications for student cohorts, including those students entering Algebra I who received instruction in grade 8 revised TEKS; and to create an action plan for the transition to the revised TEKS. This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered.
5 The Revised Math TEKS (Grades 9–12) with Supporting Documents
The goals for participation are to become familiar with the revised TEKS and the TEKS comparison documents, to examine how to use the documents to improve overall mathematics instruction, and to explore vertical alignment of mathematical concepts and processes within the revised TEKS. This training, previously available in Texas Courses, is now openly available but does not earn course provider credit and no certificate will be offered.
