Skill Modules are supplementary resources for targeted instruction and can be used for introducing, reviewing, or offering extra support to your students.

You can find Skill Modules in your Programs & Apps menu.

Amplify Vocabulary Modules provide instruction in developing students’ vocabulary and building their word knowledge. The Vocabulary Modules are connected to the core instructional units of Amplify ELA for each grade level.

The Text Analysis Modules are aligned to key concepts in Amplify ELA lessons, including theme, structure, rhetoric, literary elements, narrative point of view, and central idea. These modules provide definitions and examples, the opportunity to walk students through an annotated skill routine to support analyzing literature using this skill, and suggestions for where students will work with this skill within the curriculum.

The Writing Modules examine the core skills of Focus, Use of Evidence, and Conventions. Teachers can use these resources in their lessons and to support targeted revision assignments for AWE-aligned skills.

Each module includes definitions, examples, and routines that can be applied during a lesson to teach or review a relevant skill, to reteach a skill in a small group situation, or or to support students in the context of a summative project or assessment.

The Teacher Tips at the end of each module provide additional suggestions for practicing these skills in core instructional units.
