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.

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

I did it! The freebie led me to make the bundle purchase and I am so glad I did! These word mapping activities covers all I need from Kdg. through 2nd grades. I can’t express my gratitude towards all Chrisina’s SoR activities. These resources are well worth the money!!! They save me so much time and students are so engaged. Thank you!

This is a great resource to include both reading and spelling with controlled sounds. The option to fold the page to hide the words is another plus so students have to apply knowledge of sounds when spelling!
