Let’s dig into your Novel Study Experience Kit!

Your kit includes print materials for you and your students to experience a full classic Novel Study unit from Amplify CKLA. Novel Studies are Choice Units—your district can choose either the classic or contemporary title. You can view all the options in your grade-level tab under Additional resources.

Amplify CKLA is a comprehensive K–5 literacy program grounded in the Science of Reading, with three distinct strands:

• K–2 Knowledge Strand: Builds background knowledge and vocabulary through daily read-alouds, guided discussion, and writing in context 
• K–2 Skills Strand: Develops decoding, fluency, and transcription skills through explicit, systematic instruction with hands-on, multimodal practice
• 3–5 Integrated Strand: Strengthens reading, writing, speaking, and listening as knowledge and skills come together with complex texts, close reading, and a focus on morphology

For a deeper dive, explore the Amplify CKLA Program Guide.
