I used this resource to reinforce the concepts that I taught using the SOR approach. My students like to refer to the charts to help them remember previous concepts learned.

I have used these posters to hang up in my classroom to go along with the current UFLI phonics lesson(s) that we are working on in a given week. I know that the students do in fact look at them, because they are sure to remind me when I have not updated them. 😉
