Built on the science of reading

Amplify CKLA makes it easy to teach the New Jersey Student Learning Standards.

Amplify CKLA helps Toms River master the learning standards by translating research-based curriculum into strong instructional resources that promote student inquiry, encourage creativity, and prepare students for college, careers, and life.

Bring the world to New Jersey students

Amplify CKLA builds knowledge coherently across subjects and grades.

Students build grade-appropriate subject-area knowledge and vocabulary in history, science, literature, and the arts while learning to read, write, and communicate thoughtfully and creatively.

Focus on foundational skills

Explicit, systematic instruction ensures that all Toms River students become excellent readers.

Great reading instruction starts with helping kids develop great decoding skills. By building a solid foundation of phonological awareness and phonics, reading the words on the page becomes automatic so that comprehension and critical thinking can happen.

21st-century tools

Immersive digital resources support students no matter where they are learning.

From the printed page to the screen, we bring foundational skills and knowledge of the world to your New Jersey learners, and make the transition from classroom to home learning seamless.
