This is the first part of two in the UFLI online training.  This is a repeat of the October 26 morning session.

UFLI Foundations provides teachers with detailed but easy to follow lesson plans that all follow this eight-step routine:

1. Phonemic Awareness, 2. Visual Drill, 3. Auditory Drill, 4. Blending Drill, 5. New Concept, 6. Word Work, 7. Irregular Words, and 8. Connected Text.

Steps 1 through 4 serve as a warm-up and review of previously taught concepts. Step 5 is an explicit introduction to a new concept including guided practice reading and spelling words. Steps 6 through 8 are opportunities to apply concepts through reading and writing activities at the word and text level.

• Phoneme blending and segmentation practice
• Accuracy and automaticity of grapheme-phoneme correspondences
