Description

These Segmenting Mats have been designed to assist your students with building their segmenting skills and phonemic awareness as they tap, map, graph and write words. By placing in write and wipe sleeves, they can be used over and over in your literacy rotations or guided reading sessions.

They have been designed to use alongside the Segmenting Picture Activity Pack cards but can also be used with other picture cards you may have. You could also use these as a whole class activity on the IWB.
