"The Science of Reading is a large, interdisciplinary body of research that focuses on understanding how reading and writing skills are acquired, developed, and taught effectively. The research integrates insights from fields including cognitive psychology, linguistics, neuroscience, education, and more, to develop evidence-based practices for reading instruction. Amplify Core Knowledge Language Arts (CKLA) uses this research as the foundation for a comprehensive program that systematically builds students' reading and writing skills by focusing on both language comprehension and word recognition. This ensures that students develop a solid foundation in phonics and vocabulary while also engaging with content-rich texts on important topics to enhance their understanding and processing of complex ideas. As a result, CKLA supports educators in delivering effective, well-rounded reading instruction that aligns with the principles of the Science of Reading." -Amplify CKLA 3rd Edition
