Amplify CKLA Florida helps you implement the new standards by translating the science of reading into strong instructional resources, so that you can focus on your students and the kind of teaching you love.
Built on the science of reading
Amplify CKLA Florida makes it second nature to teach to the B.E.S.T. standards.
How it works
Amplify CKLA Florida teaches both foundational skills and background knowledge in K–2 and combines them in 3–5, mirroring what is asked for in the B.E.S.T. standards.
Bring the world to students
Amplify CKLA Florida builds knowledge coherently across subjects and grades.
Florida students build grade-appropriate subject-area knowledge and vocabulary in history, science, literature, and the arts while learning to read, write, and think creatively and for themselves.
Students make connections day by day and year to year
“The key to developing real critical thinking skills in our students is to increase knowledge about a breadth of subjects.” — Florida B.E.S.T. standards
Knowledge Builders
Knowledge Domains feature fun animated videos that get students excited to learn.
Interactive read-alouds
Complex read-alouds build knowledge and vocabulary from day one.
Content-rich anchor texts
Student Readers are the foundation of each unit as students dive into increasingly complex text and sharpen their analytical skills.
Focus on foundational skills
Explicit, systematic instruction ensures that all 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.
Decodable chapter books
Unique decodable Student Readers with engaging plots and relatable characters make learning to read rewarding.
Step-by-step lessons
Lessons tied to B.E.S.T. standards include multisensory approaches, clear lesson objectives, and formative assessments.
Sound Library
Bring foundational skills to life with fun songs and videos that develop phonological awareness.
21st-century tools

From the printed page to the screen, we bring foundational skills and knowledge of the world to Florida’s young learners, and make the transition from classroom to home learning seamless.
