CVCE Spin Handwriting Mats – Free Tall, Small, and Fall Letter Practice for Back to School
Guided Phonics + Beyond
Free CVCe spin handwriting mats. Students spin, read, and write silent e words while practicing tall, small, and fall letter formation.
These CVCe spin handwriting mats combine phonics with handwriting by focusing on silent e words and correct letter formation. Students spin to land on a CVCe word, decode it, then write it while paying attention to tall, small, and fall letter placement. This multisensory routine blends science of reading-aligned phonics practice with handwriting instruction, making it perfect for small-groups or literacy centers.
Example words: bike, tape, home, kite, game
Reinforces the vowel-consonant-e spelling pattern while practicing handwriting
Students write each word with attention to tall (e.g., t, k), small (e.g., a, e), and fall letters (e.g., p)
Adds repetition and engagement through spinning to choose words
Easy to laminate or slip into sheet protectors for repeated practice
These mats give students a fun way to solidify both decoding silent e words and forming letters with the correct size and placement.
