Word Mapping with Spinners – Bossy R

Are you looking for a way to incorporate skills supported by reading research into your center activities? This is the resource for you!

In order to become efficient readers and spellers, students must be able to hear the sounds in a word, segment those sounds, and blend them. This center covers all of those skills in one easy to set up activity!

I created these spinners to be used with my mapping mats as a literacy center, but you can use this however you see fit!

Centers:

This pack has a focus on VOWEL R. Please note that some of the words included may contain phonics skills that have not been taught yet. If this is the case, I suggest mapping these words together first before putting this out as an independent center. Some of the pictures are repeated for extra practice.

I suggest putting out the spinners as you teach the skill. Once all the digraphs have been taught, you can include all spinners in the center, so children have a variety to choose from. You should include a mapping mat and manipulative for children to segment the sounds and then spell each sound.

Small Groups:

You can also use this resource for small group time so you can guide students in their segmenting, blending, and spelling.

What is Included:

This pack includes words with bossy R. There are 32 spinners are included. Please note that the pictures on the spinners are typically used more than once for repeated practice.

PLEASE NOTE: Mapping Mats are NOT included with this resource.
