Description
Word Flow is a comprehensive phonics-based reading fluency program that is aligned with the science of reading. This program is perfect for students who are not yet ready for Level 1 (150L) of the Flow Reading Fluency program.
The objectives of Word Flow are to:
- Develop automaticity in decoding words according to phonics rules, syllable patterns, and etymology.
- Provide students with a systematic and developmentally appropriate framework to decode words.
- Allow teachers to provide highly-differentiated instruction to a wide range of learners.
What’s Included in Word Flow?
- 10 skills-based units
- Each unit includes 4-8 activities (70 activities total).
- 70 Assisted Reading Video Passages (QR Access)
- Comprehensive placement assessment
- Detailed implementation instructions
How Does Word Flow Improve Reading?
As with Flow Reading Fluency, Word Flow uses the following three strategies to improve decoding automaticity.
- Modeling: Students will access Assisted Reading Videos that model a wide range of phonics skills. These Assisted Reading Videos provide a powerful multi-sensory model for students as they watch, listen, and read along.
- Practicing: Students are presented with critical opportunities to practice their decoding skills that consider their Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD). Practice activities gradually progress students along a continuum of learning, where students begin with a high level of external support to a high level of independence.
- Monitoring: Throughout the program, students are actively monitoring their progress by recording and graphing the number of words they can read in one minute. This monitoring not only promotes student agency, but it is also highly motivational.

Great Resource
I cannot recommend this resource enough if you are looking for a consistent, stress-free way to assess third-grade math standards! The 36-week layout provides complete coverage for the entire school year, ensuring that no core skills fall through the cracks.What I love most about this pack:Total Flexibility: The fact that it is 100% editable in PowerPoint is an absolute game-changer. It makes it incredibly simple to differentiate questions, change numbers for retakes, or adjust the text to perfectly match the vocabulary we use in class.Reduces Test Anxiety: The clean, predictable format is highly approachable for eight- and nine-year-olds. My students know exactly what to expect each week, which has dramatically reduced Friday testing anxiety.Comprehensive Skill Tracking: It systematically hits all the heavy hitters—from rounding and addition/subtraction within 1,000 to fractions, area, and multiplication fact families.Huge Time Saver: Having high-quality, standard-aligned quizzes ready to print (complete with an accurate answer key) has saved me hours of weekend prep time.It is the perfect tool for standard-based grading, quick data collection, and stress-free state test prep. If you want a structured, reliable, and customizable assessment routine, this is worth every single penny!
Nice Intro Bundle
Great free down load. Offered insight into spiral review.
Love These!
I really enjoyed using these to reinforce our math standards.
A well crafted resource
I am using this with my 5th graders and we're starting from 3rd grade analogies. This resource is great to introduce your students to thinking about word nuance.
Fun and Informative
I love how easy these notes are to use and they are colorful and engaging with students

I purchased this program, however when we try to use the QR codes, it prompts me to sign up and repurchase the program again. Can you please help me understand how my students can use the QR codes successfully?
Hello, Torie! That is very strange. I just tested out the QR codes, and the few I checked seem to work just fine. Is there a particular activity that you are having issues with? Feel free to email me at info@teacherthrive.com if you'd like to troubleshoot this directly.
I have the same question. I was also wondering if this program would be helpful for the K-2 grades, and then when they got to third I have the FRF digital that they use?
Hi Carol! Thanks for reaching out! Yes, Word Flow is geared towards students who are still decoding words but are not yet ready for Level 1 (150L), typically K-1. Students reading 150L and higher will be a perfect fit for Flow Reading Fluency Digital.
I purchased the Flow Reading Fluency digital program from the website. Is this phonics program included in that somewhere? Just wanted to ask so I don't end up paying extra for something I already might have!
Hi Kate! Thanks for reaching out. Would you mind sending us an email at flow@teacherthrive.com with the email address you created your account with?
