To address the shifts in teaching and learning in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, CAPMSE developed the K-8 Math and Science Repository with ready-to-go lessons, units and protocols for distance and in-person learning. All Repository content has a universal design for learning lens and includes support for English learners and socio- emotional learning.

Featured Repository Resources:

1. Kindergarten-2nd, 3rd-5th and 6th-8th Grade Science Materials: These materials provide teachers with an opportunity to explore high quality, NGSS aligned units and lessons that they can readily teach in their classrooms. All science materials have been reviewed, vetted, taught, analyzed and improved by multiple teachers statewide. Students will experience fun, engaging and NGSS aligned lessons and experiences. Lessons are suitable for in-person, distance or hybrid learning.

2. Framework for Distance Learning: A four-domain framework for analyzing and enhancing units or lessons for use in distance learning, with an emphasis on universal design and social-emotional support.

3. 3rd Grade Mathematics: This folder contains various resources and distance learning modifications made to the third grade 3 Act Task, Fruit and Nut. There are many ways to implement this 3 Act Task; start with the overview video to understand how to leverage the 3 Act Task tools and materials in the folder.

4. Digital Support for Remote Learning: A guide for planning and designing lessons for distance learning to increase student voice, engagement during instruction, and active participation in remote learning environments.

5. Supporting Students Non-Digitally: Since not all schools in California can support students digitally, and not every California student can access digital tools, CAPMSE created this resource in collaboration with the California Department of Education to identify “how to” ideas for adapting distance learning when technology access is limited.
