- An instructional design that levels the playing field for every student.

Access, engagement, and equity
Every student has the right to read, engage in class, and have an equal chance at success.
It’s this principle that guides our content creation and curation, and our dedication to reaching every student where they are.
In Amplify ELA, all students read the same text with the help of differentiated supports. In other words, we don’t dumb things down; we bring students up. Our robust collection of texts and research-based approach to instruction not only engage students, but build confidence.
