UFLI Manual for Literacy Intervention

I need a UFLI manual and writing supplies for literacy groups

  • $196 goal

My Project

I am using a new curriculum called UFLI. This manual is being adopted by the school, unfortunately not all teachers have access to a manual. I also have basic classroom writing supples that I need to help run these small reading groups. The eraser expo spray will support white board learning. The felt pens will support breaking and blending phoneme sounds on paper. And the magnetic letters will be used with the manual. This literacy program has the potential to make a huge difference. We appreciate your willingness to support our students!
