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 content!
This is a well prepared package for teaching simple sentences!
Super resource!
This is a great resource for teaching compound sentences!
This worked well with my students.
There is so much to this resource! I love the PowerPoint - so helpful to my students!
Exactly what I was looking for..
This 5th Grade Grammar Bundle from Teacher Thrive is exactly what I needed for consistent grammar instruction throughout the year! The lessons are clear, organized, and easy to incorporate into our ELA routine, and I love that the practice pages and assessments are included. The year-long format takes so much guesswork out of planning and gives students plenty of opportunities to learn, practice, and review each skill. A thorough, teacher-friendly resource that saves me a lot of prep time!
This 5th Grade Bundle from Teacher Thrive is an amazing collection of resources!
I love having language, grammar, reading, and math materials all together in one place, making it easy to reinforce important skills across the curriculum. The activities are well organized, student-friendly, and useful for whole-group lessons, independent practice, review, or extra support. Having so many resources in one bundle saves a tremendous amount of planning and prep time. A great value and a resource I can use throughout the entire school year!

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?
