PBS LearningMedia Math Collection

The PBS LearningMedia Math Collection provides thousands of free, standards-aligned math resources for students from pre-kindergarten through 8th grade. This extensive library includes interactive games, instructional videos, lesson plans, and practice activities developed by PBS member stations and educational partners to make mathematics engaging and accessible for every learner.

For younger students in pre-K through 2nd grade, the collection features beloved PBS characters from shows like Peg+Cat, Curious George, and Cyberchase who introduce foundational concepts like counting, number recognition, basic operations, and shape identification through animated stories and interactive games. These resources are designed to build mathematical confidence and number sense in a playful, low-pressure environment.

The upper elementary collection for grades 3 through 5 transitions into more structured content covering multiplication and division, fractions, decimals, measurement, and early geometry. Resources include virtual manipulatives, step-by-step video explanations, and printable practice materials that can supplement any math curriculum.

For middle school students, the Math at the Core collection focuses on grades 5-8 with resources aligned to Common Core standards covering ratios and proportional relationships, expressions and equations, geometry, statistics and probability, and functions. These materials use real-world contexts and problem-based learning approaches to help students see the relevance of mathematics beyond the classroom.

All resources are searchable by grade level, standard, and resource type, and can be integrated with popular learning management systems. The collection is updated regularly with new content from PBS educational partners, ensuring a growing library of high-quality math resources at no cost to families and educators.
