Developed for teachers, by teachers, with teachers.

UFLI Foundations is an explicit and systematic program that teaches students the foundational skills necessary for proficient reading.

It follows a carefully developed scope and sequence, designed to ensure that students systematically acquire each skill needed and learn to apply each skill with automaticity and confidence.

The program is designed to be used for core instruction in the primary grades or for intervention with struggling students in any grade.
