What a great help this is! I love your speed of the lesson and how you identify problems quickly and address them quickly. I also like you little classroom fun things like “the big fat check” and counting down to start.
Thank you for sharing. I have just started using UFLI with students this past month. I use your routine to prepare students and teach the lessons along with the manual. Excellent job! Your students are so engaged and look like they enjoy learning from 7:52 you. Do you have a video showing how you roll out the assessment (progress monitoring)piece? That would be so helpful.
I was wondering what age as well. I am going to start using UFLI in the fall with beginning second graders. I know it will be a review but I also thought it would be a way of assessing, to see who knows sound, how to blend, and who doesn't, to help me form groups.
Hi! I randomly came across your video when I was searching for the UFLI channel. It was very helpful to see this in action. I’m excited to watch the other ones you have posted.
Thank you so much! The paddles have ten frames on one side that worked as make-shift Elkonin boxes! It is recommended that student’s physically draw the boxes instead of using pre made boxes but I didn’t know that at the time! The paddles are from Office Depot and I love them! Used them for math, too! www.officedepot.com/a/products/5384933/Office-Depot-Brand-Magnetic-Dry-Erase/
This was incredibly helpful! Would you mind telling me where you got your dry erase boards with the sound boxes on one side? I have some purchase order money and I would like to put it towards investing in these!
Hi there! Could you pretty pretty please share your resource for the blue dry erase paddles? I'm having such a hard time finding a ten frame on one side and a blank on the other. Would be SOOOO appreciative, thank you!! And thank you for sharing your lesson- it was invaluable to see how great you do with pacing, transitions, and catch phrases! :)
Thanks Tina! I think it is ok for students to blend the word back together again when they need it. Students tend to do it naturally. These videos are far from perfect but have provided great reflection for me as I continue through my UFLI journey. I recorded these videos before I was formally trained and as I dive deeper, I see many errors and techniques to improve. As I learn more and know better, I work to do better!
I had 17 in my classroom but there were many days when I absorbed other students from neighboring classrooms and had over 22. You go slow to go fast! You have to build their stamina and build strong routines. I never move on if they are not meeting my procedural expectations. We practice a lot and I follow the exact same routines every day. My students thrive with structure and when they know exactly what is coming next. It certainly doesn’t happen in a day or a week or a month even. Keep going!
We do that but we don’t do a hand. Motion is the thing it’s called reading Horizon that’s what we do but we don’t do the head emotions. I’m in second grade.
At the end I heard you say it was time for reading...I was curious if your reading consisted of the decodable texts from UFLI or if you use another curriculum for that?
Again wanted to say this is a great and very real lesson. Is there somewhere that I could find the daily UFLI Activities from M-F? I would love to blend some of these hands on activities in my kindergarten class. Again, thank you for sharing!
Thank you! The slide decks are available for free on the UFLI Toolbox. You need to manual to teach with the slides. I follow to KG scope and sequence and teach 2 lessons a week (each lesson split over 2 days). For example, M- lesson 1 day 1, T-lesson 1 day 2, W-lesson 2 day 1, Th-lesson 2 day 2, and F- review and assessment (also available in the manual)! It is the single best thing I ever started in my classroom. You will love it! There are also free games, passages, and homework practice available on the toolbox!

Thank you so much for posting this! It is incredibly helpful to see these lessons in action from beginning to end!
Thank you for showing me how the entire lesson is done. I am more comfortable using the program now!
Really like the way you keep them moving and involved with actions and your directions. Thanks for posting!
Watching you working with your students was so helpful.
Fantastic! Thank you for sharing this video! You are a wonderful teacher! Your students are lucky to have you!
Thank you so much!
Your videos are incredible and so helpful. I hope you are able to post more!
Thank you so much!! I need one of these videos for every lesson lol. Wonderful to see this resource in action, excited to start with my class.
So helpful! Love your management techniques.
Thanks so much!

Where did you buy your paddles with the elkonin boxes on the backside? Please keep the videos coming. I love seeing how you teach UFLI :). Thank you.

We did it! Dora the explorer instantly comes to mind lol 😂
where did you buy your hand held white board paddles with the elkonin boxes on them> TIA
same question! Also the doc camera that is so sturdy!
Would love to know where you got those white boards! Great lesson, thank you for posting :) Very helpful!

Thank you for the sweet words!
What is the name of your clicker that you use to change the slides?
The brand is Logitech and it is from Amazon!
This is a great video. PLEASE be sure to NOT blend the word back together after segmenting.

Hi! I'd love to know where you got your board for the manipulative letters. Thank you!!
I use a magnetic cookie sheet from the dollar tree!
How did you keep time?
How do you do this with 22 kids all at the same time?
I had 17 in my classroom but there were many days when I absorbed other students from neighboring classrooms and had over 22. You go slow to go fast! You have to build their stamina and build strong routines. I never move on if they are not meeting my procedural expectations. We practice a lot and I follow the exact same routines every day. My students thrive with structure and when they know exactly what is coming next. It certainly doesn’t happen in a day or a week or a month even. Keep going!
Where did you get your wonderful storage cart for your UFLI student materials?
It is from Michael’s!
We do that but we don’t do a hand. Motion is the thing it’s called reading Horizon that’s what we do but we don’t do the head emotions. I’m in second grade.
I just watched Lesson 46 day 2 where did you get your letter template for the baking sheets for magnetic letters?
I got it from the UFLI Facebook group! Check the files!
At the end I heard you say it was time for reading...I was curious if your reading consisted of the decodable texts from UFLI or if you use another curriculum for that?
My district uses Wonders for the comprehension portion of our reading block.
Again wanted to say this is a great and very real lesson. Is there somewhere that I could find the daily UFLI Activities from M-F? I would love to blend some of these hands on activities in my kindergarten class. Again, thank you for sharing!

Is this Kindergarten? Is this at the beginning of the year? This is awesome!
what is the machine called that you use to project your blending drill
It’s a document camera that projects to my newline TV. I could also project it on my Espon when I had a projector!
Thank you for sharing!
Great lesson! Did you make the PowerPoint yourself?
Thanks! The slide decks accompany each lesson and can be located online in the UFLI Foundations Toolbox under Lesson Resources!
How did you get the program to draw the letter U for you?
That is already apart of the google slides.
Hi, where can i find the google slides? first time teaching grade 1. Does it come when you purchase the UFLI program?@@elinorhartless4672
Thank you! I am just checking...are you teaching Kindergarten?
Yes!
