UFLI Virtual Teaching Resource Hub

Welcome to the Virtual Teaching Resource Hub of the University of Florida Literacy Institute (UFLI). We’re glad you’re here! We have developed this site to assist teachers as they explore new ways to teach foundational reading skills using technology. This site has tools for reading instruction and intervention with children in the elementary grades.

The materials here are designed to be used with videoconferencing platforms for distance education and with interactive whiteboards in the classroom. The activities can also be used if you are creating video lessons for asynchronous lessons.

To use the materials, first watch the overview video for an orientation to our approach to virtual teaching. Then, click on the links below to download lesson templates, peruse our tips for creating engaging lessons, and finally, explore the instructional activities to plan lessons appropriate for your students.

We’re just getting started. We will be adding many more resources for you soon, so check back often!
