These professional learning modules are designed for use by teacher educators, professional development facilitators, teacher leaders, school or district leaders, family engagement coordinators, and those in similar roles in schools and communities. Most of the materials are intended to be implemented with caregivers and teachers together, and some activities are designed for just teachers. They are structured for you to select what is useful and adapt the materials for your own context and the needs of your community.

The Transition to Algebra (TTA) curriculum seeks to quickly give students the mathematical knowledge, skills, and confidence to succeed in a standard first-year algebra class and to show them that they can explore mathematics and actually enjoy it. TTA is a full-year algebra support curriculum that can run concurrently with first-year algebra. It is designed to build students' algebraic habits of mind as they explore algebraic logic puzzles that connect to and extend algebra course topics and learn broadly applicable tools and strategies to help them make sense of what they are learning in algebra. Students discuss and refine their ideas as they work through mental mathematics activities, written puzzles, spoken dialogues, and hands-on explorations that engage them in cultivating mathematical knowledge, intuition, and skills.

StoryMaker is a powerful learning platform developed by PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Labs to build the next generation of media creators through media-making projects. These lesson plans and activities provide a strong foundation of storytelling and journalism skills to help students gain confidence, find their voice, and discover their place in the world.
