If you are a K-12 educator or parent, here is a very useful search engine for K-12 OER materials . Easily is the key because frequently resources that seem to be open are not Creative Commons licensed and cannot remixed or shared. Thus, a teacher can use the resource but not modify it to meet their individual student needs or share it. Easily also means you can find them easily.
