UFLI Assessments
UFLI Assessments
Given every 2 weeks
"The UFLI (University of Florida Literacy Institute) Foundations program is a highly popular, research-based foundational reading curriculum. It provides explicit and systematic instruction in phonics, teaching children exactly how to connect sounds to letters so they can decode words confidently.
The program is widely used by educators and homeschoolers for Kindergarten through 2nd-grade core instruction, as well as for reading intervention in older grades.
How the Program Works
Explicit & Systematic: The lessons follow a logical sequence, building from simple letter-sound connections to more complex concepts like multisyllable words
8-Step Lesson Plan:
Every lesson uses a consistent routine that includes phonemic awareness drills, visual/auditory drills, new skill instruction, word work (often using whiteboards and letter tiles), "Heart Word" (irregular sight word) introduction, dictation, and connected text reading.Multi-sensory Approach: Children learn through sight, sound, and touch, utilizing tools like "sound walls" instead of traditional word walls to make abstract sounds visible.
Materials and Resources
Teacher Manual: The core print guide outlines the complete scope and sequence.
Digital Toolbox: UFLI provides a vast online library of free resources, including PowerPoint/Google Slides to accompany every lesson, decodable texts, and interactive word-building games."
