    Subject: Federally Funded Math and Science Materials

    As a follow-up to our July report Math and Science Education: Comprehensive Information About
    Federally Funded Materials Not Available (GAO/HEHS-00- 110, July 12, 2000), you asked us to
    provide additional information on each of the 61 materials identified in our report.' Specifically,
    you asked us to describe (1) the topic and/or scope of these materials, and (2) the materials'
    designed duration of instruction-that is, whether the materials are designed to be used over the
    course of a partial academic school year, a single academic school year, or multiple academic
    school years.

    The enclosure to this letter provides information about each of the materials including the topics
    covered and a summary of their instructional goals. Table 1 summarizes the duration of the
    instruction for which the materials were designed.









    'Materials refer to comprehensive materials sets that contain all of the components a teacher would need to
    teach and a student would need to learn one or more mathematics and/or science concepts.
