Using ESSER Funding to Invest in a True Science of Reading Ecosystem

Recorded on Thursday, May 4, 2023

With over $150 billion in K–12 stimulus funds still available now (but not forever!), and more students at risk for reading difficulties than ever, there is no better time for districts to get their students the literacy resources they need. Join us as we explore how you can take advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to build a true Science of Reading ecosystem in your school.

Amplify Core Knowledge Language Arts (CKLA)

The Science of Reading is in Amplify CKLA’s DNA. Any program can claim alignment to the Science of Reading, but Amplify CKLA is tried and true. Every component of our core K–5 curriculum was built with decades of research in mind, and our teachers trust it to build lasting literacy for each and every student.

Program Structure Matters

Amplify CKLA is the premier, comprehensive Science of Reading program structured to support evidence-based and developmentally appropriate instruction. In Amplify CKLA, students master both strands of the reading rope in a unified instructional experience. It is the only core literacy program you will need to build background knowledge and foundational skills simultaneously. 

Building Knowledge from the Beginning

Not every student comes into your classroom with the same preparation, but we know they all deserve the opportunity to engage in instruction at similar levels of understanding. Amplify CKLA doesn't rely on activating prior knowledge; instead it builds a breadth of knowledge and vocabulary systematically across coherent topics that connect and grow as students progress. With Amplify CKLA, students study more than twice the domains of those using competing programs, spanning rich and diverse content areas such as history, science, literature, and more.  

Unique, Integrated Foundational Skills Instruction

While other programs focus only on phonics and phonemic awareness, Amplify CKLA uses an integrated and consistent approach to help students build the skills they need to recognize words and then apply that knowledge as they read and write. Our full library of decodable readers supports students as they become automatic in the English code, in an engaging and robust format that makes kids excited to read. 

We have seen astronomical growth with our students this year. When we tested our students in the beginning of the year, and then we compared their scores in the middle of the year, we had students that were making between 80 and 100 composite points of growth in one semester. Never before have I seen students make that much growth in half of a school year.
