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!
This was a great comprehensive resource for teaching my third graders about using commas and quotations in dialogue. The only thing I would add is what to do when there is already existing punctuation in the dialogue. Otherwise, fantastic resource!
Learning for Life
My students needed this so much! Reviewing grammar skills using a spiral review helps my students keep their skills on going so they put these skills into lifelong learning not just for the moment. Learning that sticks for life is what we are after!
Loved the resource.
We use this everyday as a warm up in class. Easy to use.
Great resource!
Very visually appealing! Easy to print and use. Thank you!
Great product
This is just what I was looking for. Perfect for my class!

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?
