November Free Thematic Phonics Mapping Mats – Turkey & Cornucopia Sound Mapping Practice

Make phonics instruction more engaging this fall with these free November Thematic Phonics Mapping Mats. Students use the green-yellow-red sound mapping routine to segment and blend sounds in 3-, 4-, and 5-sound words.
