Here at Amplify, we’re thankful for the amazing work you do each day to shape the minds and futures of so many students! We’ve created two thankfulness-themed downloadable worksheets for you to use with your students this month: a fill-in acrostic poem for younger students and a writing exercise for older students. Both are available in English and Spanish!


Don’t forget that today, Nov. 1, is the first day of Native American Heritage Month. Although we recognize the culture and heritage of Native Americans year round, we place a special emphasis on their role in American history in November. We hope you’re able to incorporate a few of their many contributions into your classrooms this month!

“She has helped me and the other educators on our team understand the scope and sequence of Amplify, as well as prepare materials that can be a real time-saver for my day. She has done everything from helping us to set up our word and argumentation walls to leading us to understand how the process skills we are working on with sixth-grade students will connect to their success in instructional tasks through middle school and beyond.”
