The first day of school brings with it a lot of anticipation and information. Our goal is to guide you and your students by providing information that helps support your classroom during the first few days, weeks, and even months of the year. Read on to learn about some of the resources and webinars that Amplify has created just for you! |
Back-to-school night for families
Devices, schedules, logins, links … we know how hard it may be this year to communicate all the things to your families. And we know (from experience!) that caregivers are feeling uncertain at best: Are we doing this right? Are we supporting our children in the best way possible? To help everyone, we’re hosting a back-to-school webinar for families and caregivers. Please share this flyer with families and invite them to join us for an overview of the program their student is using at home on Tuesday, September 22, 7–7:30 p.m. ET/4-4:30 p.m. PT.
Encourage families to register! |
Audio read-aloud enhancement
Amplify continues to support all learners by integrating and improving accessibility features in Amplify ELA. Currently our read-aloud function allows students to turn on an automated reading for digital unit assessments. This week, we're adding a new enhancement that will highlight words as they are read, making it easier for students to follow along.
For more information, review our accessibility-related features. |
Teacher spotlight: You
We’re looking for teachers to spotlight during the 2020–2021 school year, especially new teachers who are passionate about teaching—even in far from ideal circumstances.
