January CVCe Word Mapping Mats Free Download | Long Vowel Phonics Practice

This January CVCe Word Mapping Mats Free Download includes hands-on phonics mats designed to help students understand how long vowel sounds work in CVCe words. Students say the word, segment each sound, and map the sounds into boxes to clearly see how the silent e changes the vowel sound.

These mats support phonemic awareness and decoding by helping students focus on sound-to-letter connections without adding extra sounds for the silent e. The consistent mapping routine builds confidence and supports strong long vowel understanding throughout January.

These January CVCe mapping mats are low-prep and easy to use across whole-group modeling, small-group instruction, or independent practice.
