Winter Word Mat Phonetically coded
Special Resources, Holiday & Seasonal, ELA, Special Education Needs (SEN), Seasons, Summer, Language Development, Phonics, Reading, Spelling, Kindergarten, Preschool, Grade 1, Word Walls, Classroom Decor, Posters

Winter Word Mat Phonetically Coded The Winter Word Mat Phonetically Coded resource provides a winter-themed word mat to help students learn essential vocabulary words for the season. Key phonetic patterns are colour-coded on each word to reinforce spelling rules students know and help decode new terms. This multisensory approach builds confidence, especially for struggling learners. Teachers can display the mat for whole-group lessons, provide printed copies for small groups to use to sort words, or have students reference the mat independently during writing. It can sit right there on the desk and makes writing so much easier, inspiring confidence! Used alongside the coordinating flashcards or as part of a seasonal word study unit , this versatile resource is suitable for a variety of elementary grade levels and settings including general education, special education, and homeschool. This is one of a series of 4 seasons word mats with a difference - the words have the phonic digraphs/trigraphs highlighted in color. This has various functions: When children can identify the sounds they've already learned in words they haven't used before, they can spell new words more quickly. As they work with the word mat, the spelling patterns they have already been taught are reinforced. When the sounds of many of the "new" words are highlighted for the kids, they can sound them out on their own, which makes them very happy! This gives me so much more confidence! Who is the Winter Word Mat for? It can sit right there on the desk and makes writing so much easier, inspiring confidence! It is suitable for all children, but it is especially helpful to those with any special needs that make it difficult for the child to transfer words from the board to their paper! They can also be displayed as posters . If you enjoy these resources, check out Lilibette's Shop for more information. What is included? 1 page PDF file
