Review of Florida’s B.E.S.T. program for Grades K-5, Amplify CKLA Florida Edition

Thank you for taking the time to review Amplify CKLA Florida Edition. The items below will allow you to experience our program with access to our print materials, digital materials, and other resources to support your review.

In the early grades, Amplify CKLA, much like the Benchmarks for Excellent Student Thinking (B.E.S.T.), emphasizes explicit, systematic phonics instruction as the foundation of literacy. Decoding and fluency are essential to creating proficient readers. With the B.E.S.T. standards as the foundation, our robust curriculum is built with a full appreciation of rich text, history, art, music, and other disciplines. This thoughtful development encourages a broader view of literacy that promotes knowledge-building across varied domains and subjects, making the integration of content and collaboration among teachers easier to achieve.
