More About This Resource
The science of reading has proven that connecting phonemes (sounds) to graphemes (letters) aids students in the orthographic mapping process. This process allows students to permanently store words into their sight word memories. Using this resource, students will tap the sound they hear in a word and then map the graphemes that create those phoneme sounds.

Coral and Indigo –
These word mapping worksheets were a great resource for helping students connect phonemes to graphemes while practicing CVC short-vowel words. I really liked the clear, structured format because it gave students repeated practice segmenting sounds and mapping them to the correct letters. They worked especially well for small-group phonics instruction, intervention, literacy centers, and independent practice.

I can use this with my most at risk students and they are fairly independent with it. We write words instead of cutting and pasting.

Such a great resource! Once students understand how to complete the mapping, they are able to then apply new phonics skills to practice! Great to use within large or small group instruction during phonics/word work or for independent work. Thank you

Fantastic resource! It’s so nice to be able to find extra practice and have extra practice for students without all the work of having to find the right types of worksheets. Great for extra practice and centre work and reinforcing already taught skills.
