More About This Resource
The science of reading shows that mapping words can promote orthographic mapping and strengthen phoneme-grapheme associations to create strong readers! Through this resource, students connect the speech sounds (phonemes) of a word to the letters or letter combinations (graphemes). This process utilizes the oral language processing part of a student’s brain to help them permanently store words into their sight word memory.
Included in this download are interactive digital slides for over 485 words. These interactive slides are perfect for independent student practice or center work. Students will see a picture of the word to build meaning, hear an audio recording of the word, map the phonemes (sounds) they hear, and then spell the word using graphemes.
This resource also includes printable phoneme-grapheme association mapping boards and word image cards for small group instruction. Use these printables to complete the same word mapping routine with your students!
Resource includes:
Digital word mapping Google slides for over 485 words

This was a great way for me to teach sounds and syllables. The students who were tactile and visual learners could see what they needed and this helps them learn.

This Elkonin Boxes and Word Mapping bundle is exceptional. The materials are thoughtfully designed, beautifully organized, and immediately ready for classroom use. The picture cards are clear and engaging, making them perfect for supporting learners who benefit from visual scaffolds. The variety of templates allows me to differentiate with ease, whether students are working on phoneme segmentation, blending, or mapping more complex words.
