Amplify CKLA helps you implement Wisconsin standards by translating the science of reading into strong instructional resources, so that you can focus on your students and the kind of teaching you love.
Built on the science of reading
Amplify CKLA ensures Milwaukee student success.
How it works
Amplify CKLA teaches both foundational skills and background knowledge in K–2 and combines them in 3–5, as required by the science of reading.
Bring the world to students
Amplify CKLA builds strong content knowledge coherently across subjects and grades.
Students build grade-appropriate subject-area knowledge and vocabulary in history, science, literature, and the arts while learning to read, write, and think creatively and for themselves.
Students make connections day by day and year to year
Knowledge Builders
Knowledge Domains feature fun animated videos that get students excited to learn.
Interactive read-alouds
Complex read-alouds build knowledge and vocabulary from day one.
Content-rich anchor texts
Student Readers are the foundation of each unit as students dive into increasingly complex text and sharpen their analytical skills.
Social-emotional learning
Social-emotional learning and civic responsibility expand with each year.
Focus on foundational skills
Explicit, systematic instruction ensures that all MPS students become excellent readers.
Great reading instruction starts with helping kids develop great decoding skills. By building a solid foundation of phonological awareness and phonics, reading the words on the page becomes automatic so that comprehension and critical thinking can happen.
Decodable chapter books
100% decodable Student Readers with engaging plots and relatable characters make learning to read rewarding.
Step-by-step lessons
Instruction grounded in the science of reading offers multisensory approaches, clear lesson objectives, and formative assessments.
Sound Library
