148 phonics encoding activities aligned to UFLI Foundations's scope and sequence.
UFLI Foundations's phonics scope, in brief.
UFLI Foundations is a widely adopted phonics scope and sequence used across K-5 classrooms. It moves students from letter-sound correspondences and CVC blending into digraphs, blends, vowel teams, and r-controlled vowels — building toward multisyllabic decoding.
UFLI Foundations's phonics direct instruction is rigorous. But most teachers flag the same gap: not enough time for every student to actually practice the pattern after the lesson. The new sound gets taught; the day runs short on application reps.
Curipod fills that gap — every student writes words with the target sound, gets instant feedback, and the teacher sees who got it before moving on.
“The UFLI Foundations lesson is great. I just can't get every kid enough turns to actually spell with the pattern.”
Whole-class phonics practice, dropped into your UFLI Foundations lesson.
Rigorous, engaging practice, together. Aligned to the science of reading, and complementing — not replacing — UFLI Foundations's direct instruction.
Hear the sound
Teacher introduces the target grapheme from the UFLI Foundations lesson. Students listen and identify.
Spell & get feedback
Every student writes words with the target sound. Each one gets instant feedback and a score.
Read aloud
Students share their words with a partner or the whole class.
Learn & try again
Teacher sees who got it. Students hear new words from peers — then try again.
Aligned to the science of reading
Every UFLI Foundations-mapped activity is built on the encoding research: students segment, choose graphemes, write, and read — hitting every step the science says builds durable phonics knowledge.
Fits right after UFLI Foundations's direct instruction
Drops in after the teacher introduces the new pattern. Functions as the productive application step UFLI Foundations's pacing doesn't always allow for.
