Six Syllable Types and Morphology
This set of videos is organized into two topics: Six Syllables Types and Morphology. The videos are edited from a six-hour professional development and may be used as a sequenced set of lessons or individually.
Texas Courses Update
Professional development courses for CPE credit are transitioning to a new course platform—TEALearn; professional development courses are no longer available through the Texas Gateway. As part of this process, TEA has reviewed courses that were previously offered through the Gateway. This resource provides an update on current status and availability of Classic Gateway courses.
New Resource Link to Test
Here's the new resource link to test. Let's hope this is a go!
Pilot Edition Texas OER 6-12 Math, COVID Emergency Release (CER 3.0)

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.
