Intervention Curriculum

Kindergarten-2nd Grade - UFLI (University of Florida Literacy Institute)

     UFLI focuses on phonemic awareness (sounds) and phonics (blending and segmenting words).  UFLI also teaches heart words (high frequency words), sentence reading, and comprehension through drawing and writing short descriptions of a passage.

3rd Grade - Advanced Word Study & Word Connections

     Advanced Word Study focuses on breaking apart multisyllabic words by their syllable type.  Students will also read passages where they can practice the syllable rules to sound out/blend words together.  After working on syllables, this program switches to morphology lessons (prefixes, suffixes, roots.)

     Word Connections focuses primarily on morphology.  Students will learn and review many different prefixes and suffixes and their meanings.  This program also reviews phonetic sounds and reading passages.

4th Grade - Word Connections & Illuminate Passages
