Spelliosity aligns with UFLI

Spelliosity is an ideal transition for students who have completed UFLI lessons. UFLI and Spelliosity are both comprehensive guides that provide teachers with explicit instruction. Spelliosity is an excellent next step to UFLI’s explicit and systematic phonics program, as it supports spelling mastery through orthography, morphology, and etymology. Teachers will find this resource extends their students’ understanding of our spelling system, enhancing their reading and spelling.

A testimonial from Ms. D – Grade 1/2 teacher

“I’m excited to share the positive impact Spelliosity has had in my grade 1/2 classroom. My grade 3 and 4 colleagues also use it and find it valuable. Serving as a natural progression from my UFLI phonics instruction, Spelliosity has seamlessly integrated into my program for students reading at and above grade level. The two word lists enable me to differentiate instruction with ease. The teacher guides have provided invaluable insights, enhancing my understanding of orthography and morphology. If you want to strengthen reading and spelling skills in your classroom, I highly recommend incorporating Spelliosity into your daily practice.”

What teachers are saying

  • LOVE these packages!

    These packages are great for teachers who are learning all about structured word inquiry/morphology/structured literacy but also helpful for those well on their way! I use them in class and for tutoring.

    The links and videos are very helpful if you need a visual!
