ODD SQUAD is a live-action media property designed to help kids ages 5-8 learn math. The show focuses on two young agents, who are part of the Odd Squad, an agency whose mission is to save the day whenever something unusual happens in their town. A math concept is embedded in each of their cases, as the agents work together to problem-solve and correct the oddity du jour in each episode. ODD SQUAD is created by Tim McKeon (Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends, Adventure Time, The Electric Company) and Adam Peltzman (The Electric Company, The Backyardigans, Wallykazam!) and produced by Sinking Ship Entertainment and The Fred Rogers Company.

Along the way, Dana and her friends will race through a stampede of Triceratops, take on a Spinosaurus, get beak to nose with a Quetzalcoatlus, and come to realize that family, whether human or Jurassic, is the most important quest of all.

Advancing Children's Learning Through Personalized Media Experiences
CONTENT, COMMUNITY, AND COLLABORATION: ADVANCING CHILDREN'S LEARNING THROUGH PERSONALIZED MEDIA EXPERIENCES A READY TO LEARN TELEVISION GRANT PROPOSAL FROM THE CORPORATION FOR PUBLIC BROADCASTING AND THE PUBLIC BROADCASTING SERVICE I. PROJECT OVERVIEW The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) and the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) seek a Ready To Learn Television grant (RTL) to create a groundbreaking and comprehensive media initiative that will help to close the achievement gap for young learners from low-income households and contribute meaningful practice and research to the early learning field. Forming powerful collaborations within and across organizations devoted to early learning, media, and community engagement, the Project Team will address both invitational priorities from the Department of Education, producing and delivering comprehensive multi-platform educational media experiences to improve school readiness by focusing on science and literacy learning among low-income children ages 2-8, and combining media assets into dynamic new learning adventures that use embedded analytics and assessments to personalize the learning experience for users and provide meaningful information to parents, caregivers and educators. The Project emphasizes the importance of content, community, and collaboration: the power of adaptive learning experiences, the amplifying effects of family engagement, and the critical role of partnerships to move the needle for children from America’s lowest income communities. The Project’s primary innovation
