Understanding the New CPS Elementary Literacy Curriculum - Amplify CKLA (Core Knowledge Language Arts)

Join CSV for a workshop to learn more about Amplify CKLA, Cambridge Public Schools’ new elementary literacy curriculum. Ana Younis, Biliteracy Coach at the Amigos School in Cambridge, will explain why Cambridge chose a new curriculum, the theory behind the curriculum, and how the curriculum aligns with the middle and high school literacy curriculums. Ms. Younis will also share resources you can access to help you better support students. 

This workshop is open to all volunteers (preschool-12) but will be most relevant to elementary and middle school volunteers.
