Bring the Science of Reading to life with Amplify's literacy programs!

You became a teacher to help students succeed. The Science of Reading shows us how, with decades of research revealing what truly works to build skilled, confident readers. Ready to see it in action?

Whether you're exploring new curriculum options or looking to expand your Amplify toolkit, join our 2026 webinar series to see how the Science of Reading transforms real classrooms. Attendees will see that when research meets practice, students don't just learn to read—they discover the joy of reading.

Watch our free literacy program webinars on demand to see how to bring to life:

  • Knowledge building that works. Observe how our content-rich curriculum, beloved by millions, reading comprehension and writing skills through systematic knowledge building.

  • Age-appropriate instruction. Watch middle schoolers thrive with instruction designed specifically to challenge them as developing readers and writers.

  • Data-driven screening and intervention. Learn how evidence-based assessment transforms into actionable support for students reading below grade level.

  • Foundational skills that stick. Witness how strong foundational skill development across the entire Reading Rope drives literacy achievement well beyond the elementary years.
