Arlington, VA, January 15, 2015 PBS LearningMedia today announced that it now offers more than 100,000 digital resources available to PreK-12 educators nationwide.

The videos, including content from NOVA and Ken Burns' The Roosevelts, offer Spanish audio and closed caption text, and can be paired with an English version, making it easy for students to toggle from one language to the other.
MATH AT THE CORE: Produced by a collaboration of public media stations and producers, this set of 400+ interactives developed around the Common Core Standards creatively addresses key concepts in Middle School Math (grades 5-8) from ratios and functions to expressions and equations.
