Pilot Grade 8 Math
In this course, students will build understanding of the following modules: Transforming Geometric Objects, Developing Function Foundations, Data Data Everywhere, Modeling Linear Equations, and Applying Powers.
Each module is broken up into topics where you will find teacher materials to guide the instruction and the student materials both used in the classroom for learning together and learning individually.
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.

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.
