This professional development session provides educators with an in-depth understanding of the UFLI Foundations program—a comprehensive, systematic phonics curriculum developed by the University of Florida Literacy Institute. Grounded in the science of reading, UFLI Foundations is designed to help educators deliver explicit and sequential instruction in phonemic awareness, phonics, decoding, encoding, and irregular word recognition.

Participants will explore the key components of the UFLI program, including the structure of daily lessons, the use of decodable texts, and multisensory routines that support all learners, particularly those at risk for reading difficulties. Hands-on modeling, guided practice, and implementation strategies will be provided to support immediate application in the classroom.

Participants will receive a copy of UFLI Foundations and each will receive 6 PD hours for attending. If you have any questions, contact erica.price@ckec.org
