The State Superintendent of Public Instruction (SSPI) has invited publishers of mathematics and language arts instructional materials to submit supplemental instructional materials that bridge the gap between programs currently being used by local educational agencies and the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) adopted by the State Board of Education (SBE). Teachers and content experts recruited by the SSPI and the SBE will review the supplemental materials for alignment to the CCSS. Once the review is complete, the California Department of Education will list on this Web page materials that are aligned to the CCSS and can serve as resources that can help local educational agencies in their transition to the new standards.
