What is Amplify ELA?

Amplify ELA is a blended curriculum designed specifically for grades 6–8. The heart of every lesson is the text. We enable teachers to teach skills through texts and develop their students’ muscles for building meaning through reading. With Amplify ELA, students learn to attack any complex text and make observations, grapple with interesting ideas, and find relevance for themselves.

We are the program for middle school teachers, offering rich texts that are a delight to teach, better connections with your students through powerful differentiation and assessment tools, and step-by-step instructional guides and resources that save you time and simplify your day.
